For Women Who are Trying to Conceive or Hope to Conceive in the Future:
An Important Topic About AMH Testing and Ovarian Age
~ About the High Sensitivity AMH Test available at Rose Ladies Clinic ~

Women who want to get pregnant but are unable to are increasingly experiencing this problem. This issue is perhaps unique to the modern world, where people tend to want to have children at an older age due to late marriage, career aspirations, and diversifying lifestyles.

However, all women’s ovarian function gradually declines from puberty to menopause. This mainly indicates a decline in the number of eggs, and at the same time, the quality of the eggs may also be declining.

In the Edo period, women first married at around 20 years old, began giving birth in their early 20s, and gave birth to an average of 4 to 5 children. Biologically, this is considered to be the natural state of humans. However, modern people are unable to maintain this pattern within their lifestyles.

That is why it is important to know the state of your ovaries, also referred to as your “ovarian age.”
This can help you think about your life plan from a medical perspective. Depending on how quickly your ovarian age drops, this may also be important to know if you are married or have plans to marry, how much career advancement you want, and more.

Ovarian Function and Individual Differences

The speed at which a woman’s eggs decrease in number varies greatly from person to person. Some people experience menopause before the age of 40 due to Premature Ovarian Failure (POI), and it is said that approximately 30% of women aged 35 to 40 fall into the category of Diminished Ovarian Reserve (DOR), which causes natural conception to be difficult. This is a condition in which the number of eggs has decreased significantly, and medical support is required to become pregnant.
The AMH test (anti-Müllerian hormone test) provides the early detection of this condition.

What is AMH?

AMH is a hormone secreted from a woman’s ovarian follicles that reflects the number of eggs in stock, making it an important indicator for estimating the current ovarian age. In addition, by measuring FSH (a hormone in the pituitary gland that stimulates the ovaries), you can get a detailed understanding of your condition, including your ovarian response.

Why and When to Take the AMH Test
– Those who are trying to get pregnant but are having difficulty
– Those who are considering freezing their eggs in the future
– Those who have a family history of early menopause
– Those who have had ovarian surgery
– Those who have continued to have irregular periods

The test can be performed by simply drawing blood, and can be taken at any time regardless of the menstrual cycle. Our clinic is highly encouraging patients to measure AMH and FSH together.

AMH Test Procedure and Cost

1. Make a reservation at our clinic by phone
2. Fill out a questionnaire and take some simple questions
3. Blood draw (takes a few minutes)
4. Notification of results (within about a week)

The cost is around 10,000 yen for private medical treatment.
