A guide to egg supply - not fertility itself
AMH is made by follicles in the ovaries and reflects how many eggs remain. It doesn’t show egg quality, or whether you can get pregnant naturally right now.
What it shows

What it doesn’t
“Can I get pregnant?”
It doesn’t predict natural conception in the near term.
Not fertility
