What is the AMH Test?

The Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) test is a diagnostic tool used to measure the levels of AMH, a hormone produced by the granulosa cells in ovarian follicles. It is widely used in fertility evaluations to assess ovarian reserve, which indicates the number of viable eggs remaining in the ovaries. The test is crucial for women planning pregnancy, undergoing fertility treatments, or evaluating ovarian health. Unlike other hormonal tests, AMH levels remain stable throughout the menstrual cycle, providing a consistent indicator of ovarian function. Additionally, the AMH test is useful for identifying reproductive health conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or premature ovarian failure. It is a simple blood test, often recommended for women of childbearing age.
