Low AMH isn’t a fertility death sentence, but it is an important guide.
AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is produced by granulosa cells, the cells that surround and nurture developing follicles in your ovaries.
It reflects how many follicles are active this cycle, offering a snapshot of current ovarian activity, not overall fertility or egg quality.
AMH levels can fluctuate slightly with hormonal suppression (like birth control), inflammation, stress, nutrition, and natural age-related changes.
It’s best viewed as part of your fertility overview rather than a verdict on your ability to conceive.
That said, age and AMH together can help guide conversations about planning and timelines. If you’re over 35 and have a lower AMH, it’s worth discussing your options sooner — whether that’s optimizing your fertility naturally, exploring egg freezing, or preparing for assisted cycles.
Egg quality and the environment in which eggs mature (blood flow, metabolic health, oxidative stress) often matter more than the number itself. That’s where lifestyle, nutrition, and acupuncture can make a meaningful difference — supporting the ovarian environment, your overall health and improving the conditions for conception.
