The number of eggs remaining in the body can be evaluated through the AMH level measured by a blood test.
What is AMH?
AMH stands for Anti-Mullerian Hormone. AMH is secreted by small follicles in the ovaries, and the concentration of AMH in the blood can be used to assess ovarian reserve.
AMH can be used as one of the indicators to evaluate whether ovarian function has been affected after ovarian surgery or cancer treatment.
AMH levels can be assessed from before puberty through adulthood and can serve as an important reference for evaluating diminished ovarian function.
Therefore, women of reproductive age are advised to check their AMH levels before and after ovarian surgery or cancer treatment and discuss with a reproductive medicine specialist whether fertility preservation should be considered before treatment.
