AMH is produced by ovarian follicles and serves as a marker of remaining ovarian reserve in reproductive-age women.

Why it's measured

What AMH can reveal.

AMH is central to fertility evaluation and has been associated with ovarian reserve in research literature.

Higher vs. lower AMH — at a high level.

Elevated

Has been associated with PCOS in published research.

Lower

Has been associated with diminished ovarian reserve in research literature.

These associations are general. They are not a personal diagnosis or prediction. Discuss your individual results with your physician in the context of your full health profile.
