Anti Mullerian Hormone Test

Anti Mullerian Hormone Blood Test is a simple blood test that detects Antimullerian hormone (AMH) levels in blood.AMH is also called Mullerian inhibitory factor (MIF). AMH is predominantly a female hormone which is secreted by granulosa cells of the ovary. Anti mullerian hormone levels give an idea about the ovarian reserve in females. AMH levels decrease as the age of the female advances.

Females are born with a limited number of eggs in the ovary. These eggs are used up during the lifespan of a female at the time of ovulation in each menstrual cycle. By undergoing the test, the Anti mullerian hormone levels help to know how many eggs are left in the ovary. Thus, low AMH levels signify diminished ovarian reserve and hence less chances of fertility.

Various causes of low AMH levels are:

Growing Age- AMH levels in a person start decreasing as the age advances.
A patient with any history of ovarian surgery may have low AMH level.
High stress levels
Low vitamin D levels
