Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)

The analysis for AMH is very important because the hormone itself is responsible for the reproductive functions of the female body. Violation of its formation often causes not the onset of pregnancy. Therefore, the level of anti-Müllerian hormone allows you to assess the childbearing function of a woman.

If the egg supply is high, there is every chance to experience the happiness of motherhood.

In addition, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) analysis plays an important role in planning an IVF procedure. In this case, its level allows the doctor to determine the exact doses of hormones that are needed during in vitro fertilization.

With ovarian cancer, women have been prescribed an AMH test to assess the quality of therapy. According to the dynamics of hormone production, the success of treatment is judged.

A blood test for AMH is the so-called indicator of a woman's fertility since the hormone allows you to assess women's health:

• If the indicators are too high, this may indicate problems with ovulation, the presence of tumors in the ovaries, an increase in the number of male sex hormones.
• If the indicators are underestimated, then the ovarian reserve decreases in the body, menopause is approaching, the ovaries do not work properly, there are risks of obesity.

AMH analysis is very important when planning a child, as it shows how much time a couple has to conceive. By understanding the ovarian reserve, the woman and the doctor can choose the most successful strategy for the future planning of a baby.

If the level of the hormone is low, but the woman does not want / cannot give birth in the near future, the issue of preserving (freezing) eggs is discussed, in other words, “postponed motherhood”.

A blood test for AMH hormones is also included in the anti-age program, as it helps to determine the decline in estrogen levels - a hormone that is important for prolonging a woman's youth.

We do not recommend donating anti-Mullerian hormone in dubious clinics and laboratories, since the negligent attitude of medical personnel and the lack of modern equipment can cause false readings.

For women, an anti-Mullerian hormone test should be taken:

• to determine the ovarian reserve and the chances of conceiving a child;
• in preparation for IVF;
• with suspicion of polycystic ovary syndrome;
• to evaluate the effectiveness of therapy in ovarian cancer.

They are also sent for AMH analysis in pediatrics to establish gender, assess the level of puberty, and the presence of testicular tissue in boys.

In men, an elevated AMH level may indicate delayed puberty, the presence of a Sertoli cell tumor, or cryptorchidism. Low level - a violation of the formation of sex, anorchia (absence of testicles), premature puberty.

The production of AMH is not associated with other hormones, its level is not affected by external factors and lifestyle. This means that the concentration cannot be affected in any way. If in doubtful medical institutions you are offered to take drugs to increase the level, change the specialist.

The results obtained after the test for anti-Mullerian hormone can be compared with the reference values ​​​​(ng/ml.):

• The normal variant for prepubertal age is up to 8.90.
• The variant of the norm at reproductive age is up to 12.60.
• Decreased ovarian reserve - below 1.00.
• Postmenopausal - below 0.16.

The maximum amount of the hormone is observed in the period of 20-30 years. After 30, the level of AMH begins to gradually decrease and completely stops being produced by menopause. However, there are situations when even in young girls the level of AMH begins to actively decrease.
