Anti-Müllerian hormone

抗缪勒管激素

Common aliases: 抗米勒管激素, AMH 检查, 抗穆勒氏管激素
Use in consultation: Information organization and clinic communication

Overview

Anti-Müllerian hormone is produced by cells around small ovarian follicles. In fertility care, it is often reviewed to estimate how the ovaries may respond to stimulation, but it does not directly measure egg quality or guarantee pregnancy outcomes.

AMH is a blood marker commonly used when discussing ovarian reserve and expected ovarian response. It should be interpreted together with age, ultrasound findings and medical history.

Category: Tests & indicators
Chinese term: 抗缪勒管激素
Boundary: Not medical diagnosis

KEY POINTS

What to clarify

01Useful for discussing ovarian response before stimulation
02Not a standalone prediction of natural conception or live birth
03Should be reviewed with AFC, age and prior treatment response
04High or low values may change medication and monitoring discussions

Clinical use

FutureSeeds uses AMH as one part of a broader information review so advisors can prepare clearer questions for clinics and doctors.

Medical interpretation, medication choices and treatment decisions should be confirmed by licensed clinicians and the selected hospital.

01Was AMH tested recently and which unit was used?
02Does the ultrasound AFC match the AMH result?
03How might this affect stimulation protocol and cycle planning?
