AMH Level Checker

See what your AMH result says about your egg reserve, compared with the typical level for your age, in plain words.

1.8 ng/mL is 12.9 pmol/L

Use the number on your blood test report. AMH can be tested on any day of your cycle.

  • That is about the typical level at 34.

Nothing to act on from AMH alone. If you have been trying for a year (6 months from 35), see a specialist.

What AMH means

AMH counts your eggs. It does not grade them.

It is one of the most useful fertility tests, and one of the most misunderstood. Here is what it can and cannot tell you.

What it tells you

  • Roughly how many eggs are left

    AMH comes from the small follicles in your ovaries, so it follows how many eggs remain.

  • How you may respond to IVF medicines

    It helps your doctor choose the dose and estimate how many eggs may be collected.

  • A hint of PCOS when it is high

    Many small follicles make a lot of AMH, so a high result can go with PCOS.

What it does not tell you

  • How good your eggs are

    Egg quality depends mostly on your age, not on your AMH.

  • Your chance of pregnancy next month

    In a large study of women trying naturally, a low AMH did not lower their chance of pregnancy.

  • Exactly when menopause will come

    It gives a rough idea at best. Many women with a low AMH still have years of periods.

AMH by age

Normal AMH levels by age

The typical level falls a little every year, faster before 35 and more slowly after. Your row is marked.

AgeTypical, ng/mLTypical, pmol/L
253.021.6
302.517.9
351.611.2
400.75.3
450.32.2

Typical (median) levels from Seifer and colleagues, Fertility and Sterility, 2011: 17,120 women tested at US fertility centres.

The four bands many clinics use

  1. Very lowUnder 0.5 ng/mL

    Fewer eggs left. Worth seeing a specialist soon.

  2. Low0.5 to 0.9 ng/mL

    Below average for most ages. Plan sooner rather than later.

  3. Usual1.0 to 3.5 ng/mL

    A usual egg supply for many women.

  4. HighOver 3.5 ng/mL

    Plenty of eggs. Sometimes seen with PCOS.

Labs and test kits differ a little. If your report gives its own range, go by that.

AMH and IVF

How your doctor uses AMH

In IVF, AMH is less about the chance of success and more about planning the treatment around you.

  • Your dose is set around it

    A lower AMH often means a higher dose; a high AMH, a gentler one to avoid over-stimulation.

  • It hints at how many eggs

    With the scan, it is the best single guide to how many eggs may be collected.

  • It helps plan egg freezing

    If you are thinking of freezing eggs, it helps decide when, and how many cycles.

  • It is one part of the plan

    Your age, your scan and your history matter just as much.

Before you worry

Four things that can change your number

  • The pill and other hormones

    Hormonal contraception can lower AMH by around a fifth to a third for a while. It usually recovers after stopping.

  • Smoking

    Smokers tend to have lower levels, and stopping helps your fertility in many ways.

  • Surgery on the ovaries

    Removing cysts, such as endometriomas, can lower AMH. Ask about it before any operation.

  • The lab and the test kit

    Different kits give slightly different numbers. Compare results from the same lab.

Questions

What people ask about AMH

You are more than a number on a report.

Whatever your AMH says, a specialist can help you plan with your age, your scan and your hopes in mind. Without any pressure.

What is AMH?

Anti-Müllerian hormone is made by the small follicles in your ovaries, each holding an immature egg. The more follicles, the higher the level, so it gives a rough idea of how many eggs are left.

What is a normal AMH level by age?

The typical level is about 3.0 ng/mL at 25, 2.5 at 30, 1.6 at 35, 0.7 at 40 and 0.3 at 45. Many clinics call 1.0 to 3.5 ng/mL the usual range.

Can I get pregnant with a low AMH?

Yes. A low AMH means fewer eggs, not poorer eggs, and many women with a low AMH conceive naturally. It matters most for IVF planning and for how long you can wait.

What does a high AMH mean?

Often a good egg supply. Very high levels can go with PCOS, especially with irregular periods. In IVF it means a strong response, so your doctor will adjust the dose.

Can I increase my AMH?

Not really. No medicine or supplement adds eggs. Stopping smoking and a healthy weight help your fertility overall, and a result taken on the pill may rise a little after stopping.

When should I test my AMH?

Any day of your cycle. It is worth doing if you are planning a family later, thinking about egg freezing, starting IVF, or have irregular periods.

How do I convert pmol/L to ng/mL?

Divide pmol/L by 7.14 to get ng/mL, or multiply ng/mL by 7.14 to get pmol/L. This checker does it for you.

Please read: a guide, not a diagnosis

  • This checker gives general information, not a diagnosis. It compares your result with published typical levels by age and the bands many clinics use.
  • Labs and test kits differ, so your own lab's range comes first. One AMH result is a guide, not a verdict on your fertility.
  • AMH says little about egg quality or your chance of pregnancy in the next few months. Age, a scan and your history all matter.
  • If you are worried about your result, our specialists are happy to talk it through with you.
