AMH

in TTC after 35

Hi All - I usually post on secondary IF but I have a question you guys might be able to help with - is amh the main test to determine age related infertility? (I am 37).

 

Thanks!

    AMH is an important test but an RE will also look at your FSH and antral follicle count to assess your overall ovarian aging situation.  It's kind of a sum of the parts analysis, though if any part is off the charts (undetectable AMH, super-high FSH, super-low AFC) it doesn't bode well.  (Ladies have definitely had success with one or more of these issues, though.)

    Do you guys think its odd that I got my testing results and there doesn't seem to have been an FSH test? Only amh and it was a 3.7. I am 37

    3.7 doesn't sound too bad.  I am .86 and 42 yrs old.  On a chart I found online they said that I am "low normal" for my age.  I don't think my RE feels that way, I think he is going to tell me it is way too low when I go back & see him on Tuesday.
