Anti-Müllerian Hormone Test
An anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) test measures the amount of AMH in a blood sample. In males, the testicles (or testes), which are glands that make sperm and hormones, make AMH. In females, the ovaries, which are glands that store and develop eggs and make hormones, make AMH.
What it is for
AMH tests are mainly used with other tests to make decisions about treating female infertility (not being able to get pregnant). If you're having infertility treatment, AMH testing can: Testing your AMH level helps your provider know what dose of fertility medicine you may need to get the best response. Higher levels of AMH mean that you’re likely to respond to fertility medicine and you may only need a small dose. Low levels of AMH may mean you need higher doses to respond.
