In this article, we will describe in more detail about this hormone, its norms, as well as increased and decreased levels.
When is the analysis scheduled?
There are a number of problems in which this analysis is assigned:
- Problems with ovum fertilization
- Infertility of unknown origin
- Unsuccessful attempts of IVF, when ovules do not respond enough to stimulation
- Polycystic or other ovarian tumors
- When diagnosing premature or delayed puberty
Preparation and analysis
In order to correctly pass the analysis to the Atnymyler hormone (AMG), you must prepare in advance for it.
- Traditionally, the tests are taken on the third day of the menstrual cycle. Three days before the test, you need to reduce physical activity and maximally eliminate the impact of stress. The research will have to be abandoned if the patient has an acute infectious disease.
- Venous blood is taken to conduct research.
- Lab technicians use a special serum to determine the level of the hormone. Most often, these studies take two days.
Norm and abnormalities in hormone levels
For women and men, the normal level of AMG is different. In girls, it ranges from 1 to 2.5 ng / mg. At the stronger sex - 0,49-5,98 ng / mg.
Any deviation from the norm shows that there are some violations in the woman's body. In order to receive treatment, it is necessary to consult an endocrinologist.
Elevated levels of the hormone
- Polycystic ovary
- Delay in sexual development
- Mutations of receptors
- Tumors of the ovaries
Low level
- Menopause
- Premature puberty
- Obesity at a late stage of development
Methods of treatment
When you have the tests on your hands and you see deviations from the norm, do not immediately panic, give up and give up the struggle for pregnancy.
- If the analysis showed an elevated level of AMH, then the ovaries of the woman function incorrectly. In this case, in the first place, an ultrasound is to be performed and the analysis is re-submitted, since external factors could influence the result.
- The lowered level of the Antimyuller hormone also shows that the woman's body is not all right. To raise its level is impossible, since this figure is affected by the number of full-grown eggs that can lead to the conception of a child.
- In the latter case, doctors usually stimulate the ovaries to get as many healthy eggs as can be fertilized.
AMG in men
As in women, this hormone can show infertility. The development of this hormone in boys begins in the womb and continues throughout life, and increases during puberty. In adulthood, when a representative of the stronger sex is ready for the continuation of the genus, the level of the Antimyuller hormone decreases and stays at about the same level.
Deviations in the indicators may indicate that the guy or man is not doing the right process of puberty, malfunctions in the hormonal background or problems with the functions of the genital organs have begun.
Although doctors unanimously say that it is impossible to greatly affect the level of this hormone, do not despair and consider that failures in AMG led to the fact that you will never have children. The analysis is just an indicator of a malfunction or illness, and having cured it, you will be able to give birth to a healthy baby.
