AMH & Your Fertility Window: Why Testing Early Matters

On Midlife Monday, we talked about how AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) helps measure ovarian reserve and how it naturally declines in midlife.
Today, we’re focusing on how AMH affects fertility — whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or 40s.

Why AMH Matters for Fertility

AMH gives us a snapshot of the quantity of eggs you have left.

• Higher AMH = generally more eggs available

• Lower AMH = fewer eggs remaining, but pregnancy is still possible

Why Test Now?

You don’t have to wait until you’re struggling to conceive to check your AMH. Testing early can:

• Give you insight into your fertility window

• Help you plan for the future — whether you want to try soon, later, or freeze eggs

• Allow early intervention if levels are lower than expected

Why Treat Early if AMH is Low

If your AMH is lower for your age, there’s often a benefit to starting fertility planning or treatment sooner rather than later.
Options might include:

• Targeted lifestyle and supplement support

• Medications to stimulate ovulation

• Egg freezing or embryo banking for the future

The Bottom Line

AMH is just one piece of your fertility picture — but knowing your number early gives you more choices and time to act.

👩‍⚕️ At femcare.org, we combine AMH results with a full hormone profile, cycle tracking, and your personal goals to create a plan that works for you.

📅 If you’ve never had your AMH tested, now’s the perfect time to start.
