Trouble TTC

High AMH level

I just got my results back for all my blood work. Everything is in the normal range expect my AMH ( anti mullerian hormone) the standard range being up to 6.9 ng/ml. Mine is 16 ng/mL. I haven't spoke with my doctor about my results yet, but I'm concerned about this higher level. Anyone else have high levels? Any advice on this?

  • My AMH is 17, I have PCOS, and I have also heard a high AMH is an indicator or PCOS.  My RE wasn't concerned - and she said that number meant I had a great ovarian reserve, so my issue is lack of egg maturing, not lack of eggs.

  • If you don't mind me asking, what has your RE recommended as course of treatment?

  • My treatment is all in my siggy.  But to summarize, I did clomid with my OB unmonitored, no response.  Started seeing an RE and I did 3 cycles of 5mg Femara + Trigger Shot + IUI.  I had 2 eggs the first cycle and 1 each additional cycle, DHs SA was great on IUI #1 and #2, not great on #3.  All 3 cycles were BFN, so now I'm starting IUI #4 Cycle with Follistim 50iu.  She is going more aggressive since the 1-2 eggs didn't work and she will be looking for 2-4 eggs per IUI for my next 3 cycles.

  • My AMH was 12 (3-4 is normal at my clinic) and I have PCOS.  My course of treatment last time was 2.5mg of Femara+TI but we are upping it as soon as my monster cyst goes away to 5mg of Femara+ TI because I had a lack of response (1-16mm follicle) on the 2.5mg.  My RE put it like this...you have A LOT of eggs they just like to hang around your ovaries and not mature which is why you never ever ovulate on your own. 
  • That's a great way to think if it!!!!

  • I have high AMH, 17, and irregular cycles. So PCOS. My RE said the same thing: a lot of eggs, need to get them to mature. So Follistim+IUI.
