One of the most common questions women ask today is:
“My AMH is low. Can I still get pregnant?”
With more women delaying pregnancy because of career, education, or personal choices, the Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) test has become one of the most searched fertility topics in India. At MHR T Hospitals, we meet women every day who feel anxious after seeing a “low AMH” result on their report.
This guide explains what AMH really means, how it affects fertility, and what treatment options can genuinely help you become a parent.
What Is AMH?
AMH stands for Anti-Müllerian Hormone.
It is produced by the small follicles in your ovaries and tells us about your egg reserve.
Think of AMH as a quantity indicator, not a quality indicator.
You can still have good-quality eggs even with low AMH.
What Is a Normal AMH Level?
AMH levels vary by age, clinic, and test method, but the general ranges are:
- Above 2.0 ng/ml – Good ovarian reserve
- 1.0 to 2.0 ng/ml – Medium ovarian reserve
- 0.5 to 1.0 ng/ml – Low ovarian reserve
- Below 0.5 ng/ml – Very low ovarian reserve
Many women panic when they read a “0.7” or “0.3”, but remember:
Low AMH does not mean no pregnancy.
It simply means you need a planned and timely fertility strategy.
Why Does AMH Become Low?
1. Age
The biggest factor. Egg count decreases naturally after 30 and faster after 35.
2. Genetics
Some women are born with fewer egg follicles.
3. Endometriosis
Can affect ovarian reserve.
4. Prior Ovarian Surgery
Cyst removal or ovary-related surgeries may reduce AMH.
5. Autoimmune or Medical Conditions
Certain health issues affect egg reserve.
6. Lifestyle Factors
Smoking, stress, poor diet, obesity, and sleep issues may impact egg health over time.
Symptoms of Low AMH
Low AMH often has no symptoms, but a few signs may include:
- Shorter menstrual cycles
- Irregular periods
- Difficulty conceiving
- Poor response to fertility medications
However, only a blood test can confirm AMH levels.
Can You Get Pregnant Naturally With Low AMH?
Yes, it is possible, especially if:
- You are below 35
- Your periods are regular
- You ovulate normally
But the window of opportunity is smaller, so early fertility planning is essential.
Women with AMH around 0.5 to 1.0 ng/ml often conceive naturally with timely monitoring.
Best Treatment Options for Low AMH at MHR T Hospitals
1. Timed Intercourse or Ovulation Induction
Useful for women with mildly low AMH who still ovulate regularly.
2. IUI (Intrauterine Insemination)
Suitable for younger women with low AMH but healthy tubes and normal sperm parameters.
3. IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation)
The most effective treatment because IVF can retrieve the available eggs in one cycle.
Women with AMH as low as 0.3 or 0.4 often succeed with IVF, especially when treatment is not delayed.
4. IVF With ICSI
Recommended when the egg count is low but egg quality is still good.
A single sperm is injected into the egg to maximise fertilisation.
5. Segmented IVF Protocol
Helps women with low AMH by reducing stress on the ovaries and improving embryo transfer outcomes.
(We already wrote this blog earlier.)
6. PRP, DHEA, and Egg-Quality Supplements
Some women benefit from ovarian PRP, DHEA supplements, CoQ10, and antioxidant therapy.
Effect varies by case, and decisions must be doctor-guided.
7. Donor Egg IVF
An excellent option for very low AMH or women above 40 who want high success rates.
This is usually recommended only when all other options have been explored.
What Are the Success Rates?
Success depends on:
- Age
- AMH level
- Egg quality
- Lifestyle
- Medical conditions
On average:
- Women under 35 with low AMH: good pregnancy potential with IVF
- Women 35–40: success depends on prompt treatment and good embryo development
- Women above 40: donor eggs may provide the best outcome
At MHR T Hospitals, your specialist will give a customised success prediction after reviewing your hormone reports, scans, and medical history.
A Real Patient Story
Nazia, age 32, walked into MHRT Hospitals with an AMH of 0.4. She was convinced the report meant she could never become a mother.
After evaluation, we put her on an optimised IVF protocol, focused on egg-quality improvement and precise medication timing.
She conceived in her second IVF cycle.
Low AMH did not stop her.
It simply required the right plan and the right timeline.
FAQs About Low AMH
Can AMH be increased?
AMH cannot be naturally “raised,” but egg quality can be improved.
Is low AMH the same as infertility?
No. Many women with low AMH get pregnant.
Does low AMH affect egg quality?
No. It affects quantity, not quality.
How quickly should I act?
