Hi,
Sorry I'm not sure how to search the forum, so not sure if this has already been discussed.
Has anyone had the AMH test done, and how did your results reflect how quickly it took for your to get pregnant?
I had it done in February, and the results weren't favourable, so am curious to know what results others had and how successful they were with conceiving naturally.
TTC 6 years IVF it is IVF/ICSI round one 10 eggs, 8 mature, 3 fertilised BFN IVF/ICSI #2 = 22 eggs! 20 mature, 15 fertilised, 1 fresh transfer and 2 frosties BFN 2 Frosties still in freezer thank god
It's a blood test which is supposed to give you an idea of how many eggs you have left. See below an excerpt from Fertility Associates website:
AMH (Anti-Mullerian Hormone): AMH is a hormone made by small follicles as they grow in the ovaries. This test is convenient and in-expensive as it uses a simple blood test and can be done at any time in the menstrual cycle. It is available from all Fertility Associates clinics. An AMH test can pick up who might lose their fertility more quickly but it does not show who is more fertile than average. AMH does not predict ovarian reserve in women older than 40 or those with Polycystic Ovaries (PCO).
Mine was at the low end of normal, and when I told the nurse we probably wouldn't be ready to TTC for a couple years she warned me that I didn't have that much time left to conceive naturally. Freaked me out a bit, but not sure how exact the test is.
