Understanding your fertility starts with the right information. An AMH test helps assess your ovarian reserve and provides valuable insight into your fertility potential. As part of the Fertility Assessment Hub at Umniya Fertility Center in Abu Dhabi, AMH testing helps women better understand their reproductive health, whether they are trying to conceive, considering IVF, or planning for the future.
AMH stands for Anti-Müllerian Hormone, a hormone produced by the follicles in your ovaries. The level of AMH in your blood helps estimate your ovarian reserve, or the number of eggs remaining in your ovaries.
Because AMH levels stay relatively stable throughout your menstrual cycle, the test can be done at any time of the month. It is a simple blood test that provides useful information about your fertility health and reproductive planning.
As part of Umniya’s Fertility Assessment Hub, AMH testing is often combined with other fertility investigations to provide a more complete picture of reproductive health.
AMH testing is commonly used to:
AMH reflects the quantity of eggs remaining, not egg quality. It is one important part of a broader fertility assessment performed through the Fertility Assessment Hub at Umniya.
An AMH test may be recommended if you:
Many women choose AMH testing even before experiencing fertility concerns.
The AMH test is a quick and simple blood test. A small sample is taken from a vein in your arm and sent to a certified laboratory for analysis.
Results are usually available within a few working days, after which a fertility specialist will explain what the results may mean for your fertility options and next steps.
The procedure takes only a few minutes and requires no recovery time.
Very little preparation is needed before an AMH test.
This makes AMH testing one of the most convenient fertility blood tests available.
AMH results are commonly measured in pmol/L or ng/mL, depending on the laboratory.
|
AMH Level |
What It May Suggest |
|
High (above 40 pmol/L) |
Higher ovarian reserve; may be associated with PCOS |
|
Normal (15–40 pmol/L) |
Expected ovarian reserve for age |
|
Low-normal (7–14 pmol/L) |
Mild reduction in ovarian reserve |
|
Low (below 7 pmol/L) |
Reduced ovarian reserve |
These ranges are general guidelines only. AMH levels should always be interpreted alongside your age, medical history, ultrasound findings, and other fertility investigations.
AMH levels naturally decline with age as the number of eggs in the ovaries decreases over time.
While every woman is different:
Age remains one of the most important factors affecting fertility, which is why AMH testing can be valuable for women considering future pregnancy, IVF, or egg freezing.
AMH testing is commonly recommended before IVF treatment or egg freezing because it helps predict how the ovaries may respond to fertility medication.
Higher AMH levels often indicate a stronger response to ovarian stimulation, while lower AMH levels may help guide a more personalised treatment approach.
Through the Fertility Assessment Hub at Umniya Fertility Center, AMH testing may be offered as a part of a comprehensive fertility assessment.

Low AMH means ovarian reserve may be reduced compared to what is expected for your age. It does not necessarily mean infertility, but it may indicate the need for earlier fertility planning or specialist guidance.
Yes. Many women with low AMH conceive naturally or successfully through fertility treatment. AMH reflects egg quantity, not egg quality.
No. Fasting is not required before an AMH blood test.
An AMH test can be done at any time during your menstrual cycle because hormone levels remain relatively stable throughout the month.
Very low AMH levels may suggest declining ovarian function, but AMH cannot accurately predict the exact timing of menopause.
Understanding your ovarian reserve can help you make informed fertility decisions earlier and with greater confidence.
