I've been having fertility treatment for 3 years now and none of this makes much sense to me, sorry! Are they other words for things like AMH?

It looks like you are in the normal range for all of these things though, so I think it's going to be good news.

Please don't worry about talking to your doctor - they are there for the same reason you've started this thread - to explain things to you.

Make sure you ask him to clarify things you don't understand, try to be in a calm headspace before your appointment.. You could even make a list of questions and take a notebook in with you so you can note down what he says.

Good luck - fingers crossed.
