About the Health Information

• A low AMH level means your ovarian reserve may be lower than expected for your age.
• Low AMH does not automatically mean you cannot get pregnant.
• Many women with low AMH continue to ovulate and have regular periods.
• Age, egg quality, and overall reproductive health are equally important.
• Speaking to a fertility specialist early can help you understand your options.

Finding out that your AMH level is low can be worrying, especially if you’re planning to start a family. Many women immediately wonder if they will be able to conceive or whether they are approaching early menopause. While these concerns are understandable, a low AMH result doesn’t tell the whole story.

Understanding what your AMH level means can help you make informed decisions about your fertility and the next steps in your journey.

A low AMH level usually suggests that your ovaries have fewer eggs remaining than expected for your age. AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is a hormone produced by small follicles in the ovaries. Measuring this hormone helps doctors estimate ovarian reserve, but it does not measure the quality of your eggs or confirm whether you can become pregnant.

A low AMH result is only one part of a fertility assessment and should always be interpreted alongside your age, menstrual cycle, ultrasound findings, and other hormone tests.

Yes.

Many women with low AMH conceive naturally, especially if they:

• ovulate regularly
• have healthy fallopian tubes
• have good egg quality
• do not have other fertility problems

If pregnancy doesn’t happen naturally, fertility treatments such as ovulation induction or IVF may be considered depending on your individual situation.

AMH levels naturally decrease as women get older, but they may also be influenced by:

• Age
• Endometriosis
• Previous ovarian surgery
• Certain medical treatments such as chemotherapy
• Smoking
• Family history of early menopause

Sometimes, there is no clear reason for a low AMH level.

Not necessarily.

Although low AMH reflects a lower ovarian reserve, it cannot accurately predict when menopause will occur. Many women with low AMH continue to have regular menstrual cycles and ovulate for several years.

Yes.

Regular periods do not always mean ovarian reserve is normal. Many women with low AMH continue to have predictable menstrual cycles because ovulation is still taking place.

Treatment depends on your age, fertility goals, and overall reproductive health.

Your fertility specialist may recommend:

Trying Naturally

If you’re young and ovulating regularly, natural conception may still be possible.

Ovulation Support

Medicines may be used to support ovulation when appropriate.

IVF

Women with low AMH may produce fewer eggs during IVF, but pregnancy can still be achieved.

Fertility Preservation

Egg freezing may be considered for women who wish to delay pregnancy.

There is no proven treatment that significantly increases AMH levels.

Instead of focusing only on the AMH number, doctors aim to improve your overall fertility by:

• Maintaining a healthy weight
• Eating a balanced diet
• Staying physically active
• Avoiding smoking
• Seeking fertility advice without unnecessary delay

Arrange a consultation if you:

• Have been trying to conceive for 12 months (or 6 months if you’re over 35)
• Have a low AMH result
• Have irregular periods
• Have a history of endometriosis or ovarian surgery
• Want to understand your fertility options

Getting the right advice early gives you more options for planning your pregnancy.

• Low AMH indicates a reduced ovarian reserve but does not confirm infertility.
• Many women with low AMH become pregnant naturally.
• AMH is only one part of fertility assessment.
• Early consultation with a fertility specialist can help you make informed decisions.

Receiving a low AMH result can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t mean your chances of pregnancy are over. Every woman’s fertility journey is different. Your age, egg quality, ovulation, and overall reproductive health all play an important role.

If you’ve been told your AMH is low, speaking with a fertility specialist can help you understand your options and create a plan that’s right for you.
