Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Test in Gurgaon - Price & Details

The anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) test is a blood test that measures the level of AMH, a hormone involved in reproductive development and fertility. In people with ovaries, AMH is produced by the cells of small ovarian follicles that contain immature eggs. Since the amount of AMH reflects the activity of these follicles, the test is used to assess ovarian reserve, or the approximate number of eggs remaining in the ovaries. Doctors commonly recommend the AMH test during evaluations for fertility treatments such as IVF, to estimate how the ovaries may respond to fertility medications, and to support the evaluation of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), reduced ovarian reserve, menopause, and certain ovarian tumours.

During pregnancy, AMH plays an important role in the development of a baby’s reproductive organs. Male foetuses produce higher levels of AMH, which helps prevent the development of female reproductive organs. In people with testes, the AMH test may be used to assess testicular function and investigate selected disorders of reproductive development.

The AMH test requires only a blood sample, can be performed on any day of the menstrual cycle, and usually does not require fasting. Your doctor will interpret the results along with your age, symptoms, ultrasound findings, and other hormone tests.

Your doctor may recommend an AMH (anti-müllerian hormone) test in the following situations:

• If you are having difficulty getting pregnant and need to check your ovarian reserve.
• To determine how your ovaries may respond to stimulation if you are planning an IVF or other fertility treatments.
• If you want to plan pregnancy later in life and want to understand your ovarian reserve to make an informed decision.
• Have irregular periods, acne, excess facial or body hair, scalp hair thinning, or unexplained weight gain.
• Your doctor suspects a reduced ovarian reserve or an early decline in ovarian function.
• If your doctor wants to monitor you for certain ovarian tumours, such as granulosa cell tumours.
• Evaluation of undescended testes in a male infant or child.
• Evaluation of differences in reproductive development in an infant or child.
• If you are a girl or a young woman undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy and need evaluation for future fertility.

Note - The need for an AMH test depends on your symptoms, reproductive organs, age, and medical history. Your doctor will recommend the test if it is appropriate for your clinical condition.

The AMH (anti-müllerian hormone) test is not a standalone diagnostic test. It is interpreted along with your symptoms, medical history, and other investigations to help evaluate or monitor the following conditions:

• Helps estimate whether the number of eggs remaining in the ovaries is lower than expected for your age and predicts how your ovaries may respond to fertility treatments such as IVF.
• Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) - Higher AMH levels may support the diagnosis when interpreted alongside your symptoms, examination findings, and other tests.
• In perimenopause, low AMH levels may indicate a decline in ovarian reserve and can help assess reduced ovarian function. However, AMH alone cannot predict exactly when menopause will occur.
• Risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) - Before IVF, AMH helps estimate the risk of OHSS, allowing your doctor to adjust fertility medication doses and improve treatment safety.
• Granulosa cell tumour of the ovary - AMH may be used to monitor response to treatment and detect recurrence after treatment.
• In girls and young women receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy, AMH can help assess the potential impact of treatment on ovarian reserve and future fertility.
• Undescended testes in male infants - Helps determine whether functioning testicular tissue is present.
• In infants, children, and adults, AMH testing may help evaluate certain disorders of reproductive development when interpreted with other clinical findings and investigations.

Note - The diagnosis depends on your symptoms, reproductive organs, age, and medical history, and should only be done by a medical practitioner.

What to Expect Before the AMH Test

• There are no special preparations required for this test. You may eat and drink normally. The test can be done at any time of the day. If done along with other tests, you may be advised to fast.
• Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking and whether you have any underlying medical conditions. This includes contraceptive pills or devices, as the results will be interpreted accordingly. Do not stop taking any prescribed medication unless advised by your doctor.
• You can schedule the test on any day of your menstrual cycle, even if you are menstruating.

What to Expect During the Blood Collection

• A trained phlebotomist will arrive at your home at the scheduled time.
• A small blood sample will be collected from a vein in your arm using a sterile needle after the skin is cleaned with antiseptic. You may feel a slight pricking sensation.
• The procedure usually takes only a few minutes.

What to Expect After the Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Test

• Mild throbbing may be felt for a few minutes after the blood is drawn.
• Occasionally, you may feel dizzy, in which case you may lie down for a while until the feeling passes.
• The blood sample is sent to the laboratory for analysis, and results are usually made available within a few hours, and they can be downloaded from the PharmEasy platform.
• Depending on the findings, additional investigations may sometimes be recommended by your doctor for further evaluation.

Note - If you notice anything unusual at the puncture site, such as persistent bleeding, a rash, or pain, consult your healthcare provider.

This test measures a single key parameter related to reproductive health:

• Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH)

The table below presents typical AMH test normal range values based on age groups:

• There may be variation in AMH results across different laboratories due to differences in testing methods and reference ranges. When comparing AMH levels over time, results from the same laboratory may provide better consistency, as inter-laboratory differences can affect comparability.

Your doctor will interpret your results based on your symptoms, reproductive organs, age, and medical history.

Potential Risks and Complications

• The AMH test is a routine blood test and is considered safe with very minimal risk. Some individuals may experience mild discomfort, minor bruising, or slight bleeding at the site where blood is drawn. Occasional dizziness or light-headedness may also occur in some cases.
• In rare instances, there may be difficulty in locating a suitable vein, or a very small possibility of infection at the puncture site.

Understanding AMH Test Limitations

• The AMH test only estimates the remaining eggs available for pregnancy, not whether pregnancy can occur.
• It also does not determine the quality of the remaining eggs, which is also important for successful conception.
• Values may differ slightly across different laboratories and testing platforms.
• A low AMH level does not mean that pregnancy is not possible, and a high AMH level does not guarantee pregnancy.
• The result should be interpreted together with age, clinical symptoms, ultrasound findings, and other investigations.
• It cannot determine the underlying cause of infertility.

Various factors can influence the price fluctuations of an AMH test. In Gurgaon, the average cost of an AMH test on PharmEasy is around INR 1099, though it may vary slightly depending on offers and location. Explore the option of comparing AMH test prices in major Indian cities for more insights.
