Testing Hormones Indicate Ovarian Reserve

Testing Hormones Indicate Ovarian Reserve

The ability for a woman to conceive is directly related to the number of eggs she has remaining in her ovarian reserve. We will  test the following hormones: E2 (estrogen): stimulates the growth of the follicles and the production of fertile mucus from the cervix; also prepares the uterine lining for implantation of a fertilized egg, FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone): stimulates the development of the egg, and AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone): secreted by the small antral follicles found in the ovaries at the start of the cycle indicates the size of the ovarian reserve.
