Introduction
Every woman is born with a fixed number of eggs, and this number naturally declines with age. One of the most important markers of a woman’s egg reserve is the Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) level. When AMH levels are low, many women worry about their chances of conceiving. But does “low AMH” always mean infertility? Not necessarily.
In this article, we will explain the causes, symptoms, and early warning signs of low AMH, and how Carewell Homoeopathy Fertility Clinic, Kerala helps women improve fertility naturally.
What Does Low AMH Mean?
The AMH test measures the ovarian reserve — the number of eggs left in the ovaries.
AMH reference ranges vary slightly between labs, but commonly:
- High AMH: >4.0 ng/mL (may indicate PCOS)
- Normal AMH: 2.2 – 4.0 ng/mL
- Low AMH: 1.0 – 2.1 ng/mL
- Very Low AMH: <1.0 ng/mL
- Very low AMH: <0.5 ng/mL
👉 So yes, 2.2 ng/mL is often considered the lower limit of the normal range for fertility.
👉 Low AMH means that the ovarian reserve is declining faster than expected. It doesn’t mean you cannot conceive, but it indicates reduced fertility potential.
Causes of Low AMH
There are many reasons why AMH levels may fall:
- Natural Ageing – Egg count decreases after 30 and rapidly after 35.
- Genetics – Family history of early menopause.
- Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) – Ovaries stop functioning before age 40.
- Autoimmune Conditions – Where the immune system attacks ovarian tissues.
- Lifestyle Factors – Smoking, alcohol, obesity, chronic stress.
- Medical Treatments – Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or ovarian surgery.
- Severe Endometriosis – Can damage ovarian tissue and reduce AMH.
Symptoms of Low AMH
Low AMH often has no obvious symptoms until fertility problems arise. However, some signs may indicate declining ovarian reserve:
- Irregular or missed periods
- Shorter menstrual cycles (<24 days)
- Difficulty conceiving after regular attempts
- Symptoms of early menopause (hot flushes, mood swings, vaginal dryness)
- Poor response to fertility medications
Early Warning Signs Women Shouldn’t Ignore
Even before symptoms appear, certain factors raise suspicion of low AMH:
- Family history of early menopause or fertility problems
- History of ovarian surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation
- Hormonal imbalance with irregular ovulation
- Repeated failed IVF cycles due to poor egg response
Women in Kerala (and worldwide) are increasingly delaying pregnancy, making early AMH testing important for proactive fertility planning.
- How Low AMH is Diagnosed
The AMH blood test is simple and can be done on any day of the menstrual cycle.
Doctors often recommend the test if:
- You are above 30 and planning pregnancy
- You have irregular cycles or infertility issues
Why Early Detection Matters
The earlier low AMH is detected, the more fertility options remain available:
- Natural conception with proper guidance
- Homeopathic & lifestyle interventions to improve ovarian health
👉 Early awareness allows women to take timely steps before the egg reserve declines further.
