Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Test In Mumbai - Price & Details

The anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) test is a blood test used to measure the amount of AMH in your bloodstream. In women, this hormone is produced by the small follicles in the ovaries and serves as an indicator of ovarian reserve, which reflects the approximate number of eggs remaining. Doctors commonly recommend the AMH test during fertility evaluations to understand how the ovaries may respond to treatments such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF). However, AMH levels do not reflect egg quality or accurately predict the likelihood of natural conception. The AMH test may also support the evaluation of conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), also known as polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS), reduced ovarian reserve, and the transition towards menopause. In certain cases, it is also used to monitor specific ovarian tumours. In males, AMH is produced by the testes and is essential for normal reproductive development before birth. In infants and children, the test may help assess undescended testicles or investigate certain disorders of reproductive development. The AMH test requires only a blood sample and usually does not require fasting or any special preparation. Your doctor will interpret the results based on your age, symptoms, medical history, and the findings of other relevant tests.

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

• Women planning a pregnancy or undergoing fertility treatment - To assess ovarian reserve (the number of eggs remaining in the ovaries) and estimate how the ovaries may respond to fertility treatments such as IVF.
• Women with symptoms of PCOS (PMOS) - If you have symptoms such as irregular or missed periods, acne, excessive facial or body hair, hair thinning on the scalp, or unexplained weight gain.
• Women with suspected low ovarian reserve or early menopause - To assess whether the ovarian reserve is lower than expected for your age.
• Women planning pregnancy in their late 30s or later - To evaluate ovarian reserve and support fertility planning or counselling.
• Women being treated for certain ovarian tumours, such as granulosa cell tumours - To monitor the response to treatment and detect recurrence.
• Male infants with undescended testicles - To determine whether healthy testicular tissue is present.
• Babies with differences in reproductive development - To help identify the underlying cause when used along with other investigations.

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.

An AMH test is not a standalone diagnostic test, but it can help your doctor evaluate or monitor the following conditions -

• Reduced ovarian reserve - Helps assess if the number of eggs remaining in the ovaries is lower than expected for your age and predict how the ovaries may respond to fertility treatments such as IVF.
• PCOS/PMOS - High AMH levels may support the diagnosis along with symptoms and other tests.
• Menopause or early menopause - Low AMH levels may suggest that menopause is approaching or has already occurred.
• Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) - Before IVF, an AMH test helps predict the risk of OHSS, which is a medical emergency, and allows your doctor to adjust the fertility medication dose to improve safety.
• Granulosa cell tumour of the ovary - AMH may be used to monitor treatment response and detect recurrence.
• Girls and young women receiving chemotherapy for cancer - To assess the effect of certain cancer treatments on ovarian reserve and future fertility.
• Undescended testicles in male infants - The test helps determine whether healthy testicular tissue is present.
• Certain disorders of reproductive development - In infants, children, and men with differences in reproductive development, AMH testing may help identify the underlying cause along with other 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

• Fasting is not necessary if this test is done alone, and it may be done at any time of the day. If it is done along with other tests, fasting may be advised.
• The test can be done on any day of the menstrual cycle, even if you are menstruating.
• Let your doctor know about any medicines or fertility treatments you are taking or undergoing, as they may influence the interpretation of your reports.

What to Expect During the Blood Collection

• A phlebotomist will arrive at your home for the blood sample collection.
• An elastic band will be placed around your arm, and you may be asked to make a fist. Using a sterile needle, a small blood sample will be drawn from a vein in your arm. You may be advised to apply mild pressure at the blood draw site using a cotton swab.
• The procedure usually takes only a few minutes.

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

• Mild throbbing at the site may be felt after the blood is drawn.
• If you feel faint, you may lie down for a while.
• The sample will be sent to the lab to be analysed. Your test results should be available within a few hours, which you can access from the online PharmEasy platform.

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 generally safe.
• Minor risks involved with a blood draw may occasionally occur such as mild pain, slight bleeding, bruising, dizziness, or light-headedness. Sometimes, vein access may be difficult.

Understanding AMH Test Limitations

• The AMH test measures ovarian reserve (the estimated number of eggs remaining in the ovaries), but it cannot assess egg quality, fertility, natural conception, or the chances of a successful pregnancy.
• An AMH test alone cannot diagnose infertility or PCOS. Your doctor will interpret the results along with your symptoms, medical history, and findings from other tests.
• Although AMH levels provide an estimate of ovarian reserve, they cannot reliably determine when menopause will begin.

Due to several contributing factors, the price of an AMH test may vary. In Mumbai, the standard cost of an AMH test on PharmEasy is around INR 1099, though it may vary slightly depending on offers and location.
