Women's Fertility Ovarian Reserve Test

The fertility journey can be difficult—this AMH test is your first step.

Take the first step toward understanding your fertility with the Women’s Fertility Ovarian Reserve Test, which measures three key hormones—AMH, FSH, and Estradiol—to assess your egg supply and overall reproductive potential. Whether you're planning for the future or exploring options like egg freezing or IVF, this test gives your insights into ovarian function—bringing clarity and confidence to your next steps.

 

While no fertility test can predict the likelihood of pregnancy, understanding your ovarian reserve can help predict how your body might respond to fertility treatments.

 

Although, this test does not measure egg quality, tracking your hormone levels over time can support more informed conversations with your healthcare provider and help guide your reproductive planning.

Preparation: The timing of sample collection is important. Your sample should be  collected on the third day of your menstrual period. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and estradiol levels can rise and fluctuate after day three; samples collected on the second or fourth cycle day may also be acceptable. This test is not recommended if you are receiving hormone therapies of any kind.

What's Tested
  • Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)

    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.

  • Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

    FSH is a hormone that plays a vital role in reproduction by helping the body develop eggs. In women, FSH helps to mature the ovarian follicles responsible for the release of eggs. High levels of FSH in women have been associated with infertility, menopause, and other conditions.

  • Estradiol (E2)

    The most common type of estrogen, produced by the ovaries, that regulates reproductive cycles in women. Lower than normal estradiol levels may be indicative of problems that can disrupt your reproductive health including premature menopause, menopause, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), ovarian failure, and other conditions.

Looking to freeze your eggs?

An AMH test is the best measure of ovarian reserve to help women make decisions regarding IVF and egg preservation (egg freezing) treatments.

An AMH test is the best measure of ovarian reserve to help women make decisions regarding IVF and egg preservation (egg freezing) treatments.

Freezing eggs at a younger age can help preserve fertility options for the future. Nearly 12,500 American women elected to freeze their eggs in 2020.2,3

Curious about PCOS?

In the same way that an AMH test can help predict the likelihood of a successful IVF procedure, it can help detect PCOS in women who may not have obvious signs of the syndrome.⁵

FAQ

  • Age is the biggest contributing factor to a low ovarian reserve, since egg counts diminish over time. For example, most women and people assigned female at birth (AFAB) who are over the age of 40 have 25,000 eggs or less (compared to 300-400,000 eggs during puberty).7 Genetics, autoimmune conditions, and certain medical treatments can also be causes, but sometimes there is no cause identified. Consider using an ovarian reserve test to get a clearer picture of your body’s egg count and ability to conceive.

  • Many people don’t have specific symptoms other than difficulty conceiving.  Some may notice changes in their menstrual cycle, hot flashes, or vaginal dryness. Because symptoms may be absent or nonspecific, ovarian reserve testing can help provide answers about egg count as one important indicator of fertility.

  • A female fertility test provides information about ovarian reserve and reproductive potential. Our Ovarian Reserve test measures three key hormones responsible for egg production: anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol.

     

    This test does not evaluate egg quality or predict the likelihood of pregnancy. However, it does provide easy-to-understand results and insights on your reproductive hormone levels so you can discuss options with your healthcare provider and make informed decisions.

  • Currently, there are no known ways of increasing ovarian reserve. However, adopting healthy habits, such as a balanced diet and regular exercise, can help improve your overall egg health and quality.6 It’s important to follow up with your healthcare provider to discuss any abnormal results and evaluate next steps.

  • If you are over the age of 35, taking an egg reserve test can help you better understand your chances of getting pregnant. It can also provide information to help you make important reproductive decisions, such as whether you should freeze your eggs or consider IVF. Finally, if you wonder whether you have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), an ovarian reserve test may help detect PCOS in those who may not have obvious symptoms.

     

    Once you’ve ordered an ovarian reserve test, the best time to collect a sample is on the third day of your menstrual period, when hormone levels are at their most stable.

  • Your testing will be performed in a CLIA-certified clinical laboratory. Labcorp provides leading-edge medical laboratory tests and services through a national network of primary clinical laboratories and specialty testing laboratories. Our labs perform regular quality assurance testing to ensure our results are accurate.

  • Your results will be provided to you through our secure online portal to view or print. Results are also made available through a secure portal to the independent healthcare provider who placed your test order.  If you are accessing your results through your Labcorp Patient™ account, all users linked to the account will have access to all OnDemand test results. Results may also be provided to a local, state, and/or federal health authority; for example, many states require the testing laboratory and physician to report test results for certain communicable diseases, such as COVID-19, to local or state health departments.
