Blood results are back

[Newlywedded]

Hi all

i am 39 and trying for a baby with my husband for 6 months. I am obese so I am doing slimming world and exercising to try and lose weight. DH is awaiting his SA
my tests aRe back

AMH: 10
FSH:8.49
LH:5.01
oestrodriol: 120
progesterone - I came on early so got the day a bit wrong - 18.2

i am a bit disheartened by my AMH. Just wondered if any of you had any advice or thoughts?

I don’t think your AMH is bad at all for 39 - surely that is above average for your age?
I’ve seen success sorties on here with women whose AMH is <1 so try not to be too disheartened ❤️

Thanks. I did the bloods online and the report said it was within normal but lower than should be for me age.

Ahh ok, I’ve no experience with online ones and their reliability to be honest 😬
Maybe look at getting fertility MOT at a clinic if that’s an option? Hopefully they’ll be able to give you more information about your results and discuss your best next steps 🤞🏼

@Newlywedded mine is 4.4 and I'm 35!! I think 10 is fine although AMH does really need to be looked at alongside a follicle count (internal ultrasound) for it to be understood correctly x

There are two ways of measuring AMH so what your result means could be very different depending on the measurement they've done. As per pp, you really need a scan done as well to look at structural stuff and AFC. Have you booked in with a fertility clinic? They will re-do all your bloods anyway so you should get clarity then.

10 for your age is normal. My friends is less than 1 at 39 and she is pregnant through iui.

This is good result!
I'm 37 and my AMH dropped massively from 8 (2 years ago) to 1.8 ! I'm currently pregnant after 3 ivf icsi! Good luck. You only need 1 good embryo

Thanks, that is reassuring. I am hoping we don’t need ivf. Going to wait for the SA which is in august and decide from there. Although we’ve never used contraception, we’ve been very lazy about trying properly. DH has low libido.
going to try properly in July and august, use a contraception cup and ovulation sticks and macca root. If nothing and SA is normal then I might try ovulation induction in October
