You can typically have an AMH blood test at any point in your menstrual cycle. This is because, unlike other reproductive hormones, AMH levels don’t fluctuate significantly throughout the month.

Preparation: No special preparation needed.
AMH is a hormone produced by reproductive tissues in both sexes. In the female reproductive system, AMH is secreted by developing egg sacs and is generally a good indicator of egg quantity (ovarian reserve). Generally, a high level of AMH indicates a higher egg supply, but your egg quantity decreases as you age, leading to a lower level of AMH. Additionally, high AMH levels can indicate conditions such as PCOS and other reproductive conditions.
Whether you’re planning to start a family or curious about your fertility status, an AMH test provides you with a clear picture of your ovarian reserve, empowering you to make informed decisions about your reproductive status.
This LH blood test measures the LH level in your blood. Abnormal levels may indicate potential hormonal imbalances that could be affecting your fertility.1
An AMH test is the best measure of ovarian reserve. Testing AMH levels can provide important information if you're considering IVF and egg preservation treatments.
Higher AMH levels can suggest polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women who may not have obvious signs of the syndrome. Symptoms of PCOS include irregular periods, acne, hair loss, weight gain and more.1
