AMH and its Normal values and its interpretation:
A)
Extremely low levels: < l pmol/L(DSL) or < 1.1 pmol/ L (gen II
assay)
These patients are poor responders and cancellation
rates are very high.
B)
low levels: l-5pmol/L (DSL) or between
1.1-6.9 pmol/L by gen II assay. These patients have decreased ovarian reserve and
less number of eggs are retrieved.
C)
Normal levels: 5-15 pmol/L and it is
7-20pmol/L by gen II assay. These are normal responders.
D)
High level: When it
is > 15pmol/ L (DSL) or > 20pmol/L (gen II assay). These
patients are hyper responders.
AMH may provide a more accurate assessment of the
follicle pool in young hypergonadotropic patients, especially in the clinically
challenging subgroups of patients with elevated FSH and regular menses (i.e. IOF: incipient
ovarian failure) and in hypergonadotropic women with cycle disturbances not
fulfilling the POF diagnostic criteria (i.e. TOF:
transitional ovarian failure).
