Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have one son who is almost two years old and we would like to have two more children. I am in my mid-thirties and we are actively trying. My AMH sample came at 1.5 ng/mL and I am wondering what does this mean about my fertility, and whether I still have a good chance to have two more children between my mid-thirties and forty years?

Hello,

Welcome to iclniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) is a hormone that is produced by the follicles in the ovaries, and it can be used as an indicator of a woman's ovarian reserve or the number of eggs she has left. A low AMH level may suggest that a woman has a lower number of remaining eggs, but it is important to keep in mind that AMH levels are just one of the many factors that can affect fertility. To answer your questions specifically, a low AMH level may indicate that you have a lower ovarian reserve, but it does not necessarily mean that you cannot get pregnant. It is important to remember that many women with low AMH levels are still able to conceive naturally and have successful pregnancies. However, it may take longer to conceive, and there may be an increased risk of miscarriage. In your mid-thirties, you still have a good chance of having two more children between the ages of 35 and 40, but your chances may be lower than they would be if your AMH level was higher. It is difficult to say exactly what your chances are without knowing more about your specific situation, such as your menstrual cycle regularity, your partner's fertility, and any other potential factors that may affect your ability to conceive. It is important to discuss your fertility goals and any potential concerns with your gynecologist who can help you assess your situation and provide guidance on the best next steps. Many things can impact fertility, such as lifestyle factors (for example- smoking, alcohol use, poor diet, lack of exercise, underlying medical conditions, and genetics). It may be helpful to take steps to optimize your overall health, such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, getting regular exercise, and managing stress. Additionally, your healthcare provider may recommend certain fertility treatments or interventions, such as ovulation induction or assisted reproductive technologies (ART), if needed. Overall, while a low AMH level may suggest that you have a lower ovarian reserve, it is not a definitive indicator of your ability to conceive. Many factors can impact fertility, and it is important to discuss your situation with your gynecologist to determine the best course of action.

I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.
