Samples for AMH levels should be drawn on days 2-4 of the menstrual cycle.
Specimen Type
Serum
Specimen Volume
1 mL
Unacceptable Conditions
Grossly hemolyzed specimens should not be used.
Stability (from collection to initiation)
5 days at 2-8 C, 3 days at 20-25 C, 6 months at 20+-5 C
Reference Interval
Interpretive Data
An anti-müllerian hormone value > 1.77 ng/mL is associated with an antral follicle count (AFC) > 15, and consequently having a high ovarian reserve.
