Ever wondered what the heck AMH stands for? It’s been a hot topic recently, as women are getting their AMH levels tested. AMH is short for Anti-Müllerian Hormone – a nifty little hormone secreted by the egg-surrounding cells in your ovaries. Think of it as a fertility fortune-teller with a murky crystal ball, giving you some valuable clues into your egg stash. The funny thing about AMH is that I also like to call it the “Always Meandering Hormone,” because your AMH levels can wander month to month and year to year.
Does a low AMH mean you're out of eggs, or going to have a difficult time getting pregnant? Not necessarily!
And a high AMH doesn't guarantee you’ll have an easy time getting pregnant . Remember, it's not the be-all and end-all of fertility assessments.
That’s why you might get different AMH readings depending on when you test. And, it’s also why I like to test FSH and Estradiol levels in addition to AMH to get a full picture of a patient’s fertility levels.
Today on the blog, I’m doing a deeper dive on AMH, and what you need to know about it. I’ve had too many people question if their AMH is wrong, and what that means for IVF, and so I wanted to share all my thoughts with you.
So, don't go scheduling weekly AMH check-ups like they're brunch dates. Remember, it's a slow and steady decline, kinda like the plot twist in your favorite rom-com. So, keep calm and check your AMH when needed – no need for monthly updates, folks!
Bottom line? Get the deets on your AMH, craft your game plan, and remember, fertility is a journey, not a sprint! You can learn more at my site:
