More Than Just an AMH Blood Test
An AMH result should not be considered in isolation.
Although it is possible to purchase an AMH blood test from a laboratory or home-testing provider, the result requires careful interpretation. AMH does not provide a simple positive or negative answer about fertility, and an isolated laboratory result can easily cause unnecessary anxiety or false reassurance.
At The Blackheath Clinic, every AMH test is medically supervised by an experienced doctor.
Your assessment includes a GP consultation, blood testing and a personalised review of what your result means in the context of your age, menstrual history, medical circumstances and fertility plans.
What Is an AMH Test?
AMH stands for Anti-Müllerian Hormone. It is a hormone produced by small follicles within the ovaries and is commonly used as an indicator of ovarian reserve.
Ovarian reserve refers to the approximate number of eggs remaining within the ovaries. An AMH blood test can provide information about egg quantity, but it does not measure egg quality and cannot predict with certainty whether someone will conceive naturally.
AMH is most helpful when interpreted alongside:
-
Your age
-
Your menstrual cycle
-
Your medical and reproductive history
-
How long you have been trying to conceive
-
Any previous pregnancies or fertility treatment
-
Other fertility hormone results
-
A pelvic fertility ultrasound and antral follicle count, where appropriate
What Is Included in the £150 AMH Assessment?
The complete price of the assessment is £150.
There are no separate blood-draw or laboratory charges.
Who Might Consider an AMH Assessment?
A doctor-led AMH assessment may be helpful if you:
-
Are planning a pregnancy
-
Are currently trying to conceive
-
Want to understand your ovarian reserve
-
Are considering delaying pregnancy
-
Are considering egg freezing
-
Have experienced difficulties conceiving
-
Have irregular menstrual cycles
-
Have previously received an unexpected AMH result
-
Are preparing for IVF or another fertility treatment
-
Have been advised to assess your ovarian reserve
You do not need a referral from your NHS GP or a fertility clinic.
What Can an AMH Test Tell You?
AMH can provide an indication of ovarian reserve and may help estimate how the ovaries could respond to stimulation during fertility treatment.
Your result may be:
-
Within the expected range for your age
-
Lower than expected for your age
-
Higher than expected for your age
A lower AMH result may suggest a reduced ovarian reserve. A higher AMH result may reflect a greater number of ovarian follicles and can sometimes be associated with polycystic ovarian morphology or polycystic ovary syndrome.
However, the result must be interpreted carefully. A lower AMH result does not mean that natural conception is impossible, and a higher result does not guarantee fertility.
This is why every AMH test at The Blackheath Clinic includes medical supervision and personalised interpretation.
What Can’t an AMH Test Tell You?
AMH is an ovarian-reserve marker. It is not a complete fertility test.
An AMH test cannot:
-
Measure egg quality
-
Confirm whether you can conceive naturally
-
Guarantee a future pregnancy
-
Determine the exact number of eggs remaining
-
Predict precisely when menopause will occur
-
Confirm whether you are ovulating
-
Assess whether your fallopian tubes are open
-
Assess sperm quality
-
Identify every possible cause of difficulty conceiving
Your doctor will explain these limitations and advise whether any additional investigations would provide useful information.
What Happens If My Result Is Low or High?
An unexpected AMH result does not automatically mean that something is wrong.
Your doctor will consider the result alongside your age, menstrual history, symptoms, medication and fertility plans.
Depending on your circumstances, we may recommend:
-
Pelvic fertility ultrasound
-
Antral follicle count
-
FSH, LH and oestradiol testing
-
Thyroid function testing
-
Prolactin testing
-
Assessment for possible PCOS
-
Semen analysis for your partner
-
Referral to a fertility specialist
Any recommendations will be discussed with you clearly. Further investigations are not automatically required for every patient.
AMH Testing or a Complete Fertility Assessment?
An AMH test provides useful information about ovarian reserve, but no single test can offer a complete assessment of fertility.
If you would like a broader initial assessment, our £295 Fertility Assessment combines:
-
GP consultation
-
AMH blood test
-
Pelvic fertility ultrasound
-
Antral follicle count, where appropriate
-
Assessment of the uterus and ovaries
-
Personalised review of your results
A fertility ultrasound may also identify fibroids, ovarian cysts, polycystic ovarian morphology and other structural findings that cannot be assessed through an AMH blood test.
