My AMH Levels Are Low. Now What?
Apr 19, 2023 Season 3 Episode 52
Rachel Simpson

Ever heard the advice that low AMH levels mean you'll never get pregnant naturally?

Well, I have some thoughts... (drumroll please)

Quality over quantity. Always. 

And why do I believe this, even though others may have a different opinion or take on things? That AMH levels are everything when it comes to your fertility?

It's because while AMH levels are a pretty reliable indicator of your ovarian reserve (how many eggs remaining in your ovaries with "reproductive potential")… AMH levels give no insight into the quality of those remaining eggs.

Sure, the more eggs we have the better, because this gives us an indication of time frames for conceiving and when we might enter perimenopause, but when you’re trying to conceive, we want as many good quality eggs as possible.


Here’s What We’re Talking About:

  • What AMH levels actually mean (and how accurate are they?)
  • Ovarian reserve and AMH testing
  • When to test your AMH levels 
  • Why your levels might be low
  • Can you increase AMH levels? What to do if you’ve been told your AMH levels are low
