Anti-Mullerian Harmone Ovarian Reserve Marker

Anti-Mullerian hormone or AMH is produced by the granulosa cells present in the ovarian follicles. The hormone is present in both males and females in their reproductive tissues. It plays a crucial role in the development of sex organs in the embryonal stage. The male foetus has higher AMH levels and inhibit the development of female organs while female foetus has lower levels of AMH. Ambiguous genitalia or intersex is a consequence of low level of AMH in male foetus. Apart from sex organ development, the AMH comes into play at puberty and regulates the production of eggs by a female ovary.

Serum AMH

Serum AMH levels strongly correlate with the number of growing follicles and therefore AMH has received increasing attention as a marker for ovarian reserve. It enable the gynecologist to effectively determine the fertility possibilities of a female and track menopause.

AMH Level

The normal AMH level for a woman to get pregnant lies between 1.5 ng/mL to 4.0 ng/mL. The AMH levels above 1.6 ng/mL are considered good for IVF. A high AMH level, that is, AMH levels above 4.0 ng/mL indicates PCOS. AMH levels finds wide application in  testing
