What the AMH test checks
Anti-Müllerian hormone is made by the small, growing follicles in the ovaries. The more of these follicles there are, the higher the AMH. Levels are highest in the twenties and fall gradually with age, reaching very low values near menopause. The result is reported in ng/mL (some labs use pmol/L).
AMH reflects quantity, not quality. It doesn't tell you whether your eggs are healthy, and a low level on its own doesn't mean you can't conceive naturally.
Why your doctor may order it
- Planning IVF or egg freezing. AMH helps the doctor choose the medicine dose and predict how the ovaries may respond to stimulation.
- Trying to conceive for some time without success, especially after 35.
- Irregular cycles where PCOS is suspected. Many women with PCOS have a high AMH, and the 2023 international PCOS guideline accepts AMH as an alternative to ultrasound in adults.
- Before cancer treatment that may affect the ovaries.
- Rarely, to follow certain ovarian tumours.
How to prepare
Come at any time and any cycle day. Hormonal contraceptive pills and pregnancy can lower AMH somewhat, so tell your doctor if you're on them. Biotin in hair supplements can disturb immunoassays; mention it when booking.
Sample type and report time
One serum sample. It's collected at Alpha Laboratory and processed in-house or at a partner reference laboratory, depending on the test. The report is usually ready in 1–3 working days, and we'll tell you the expected date when you book. Anyone searching for an AMH test near me around Banur can also book home sample collection in Banur and nearby villages.
Understanding your results
There's no single "normal" AMH. What counts as expected depends heavily on age, and the range printed on your report is the one that applies, because ranges vary by lab and method. Different assays also give different numbers, so compare results from the same lab where you can.
A lower result than expected for age suggests a smaller egg reserve and may make a doctor move faster with treatment. A high result is often seen with PCOS. Your doctor reads the result alongside your age, an ultrasound follicle count, your FSH test and your history.
FAQ
What is the AMH test price at Alpha Laboratory?
AMH test price depends on the method used and whether it's part of a fertility panel. Call or WhatsApp for the current price and we'll give you today's rate.
Can I do the AMH test during my period?
Yes. AMH is fairly steady across the cycle, so the day doesn't matter.
Does a low AMH mean I can't get pregnant?
No. It suggests fewer eggs remain, not that pregnancy is impossible. Your doctor will explain what it means for you.
Should men have an AMH test?
It's rarely used in adult men. In children it's occasionally ordered by specialists for specific conditions.
