AMH Test (Ovarian Reserve) near Seongsu Station
Quick answer: The AMH (anti-Mullerian hormone) test is a blood test that estimates ovarian reserve, meaning the approximate number of eggs remaining in the ovaries. At Eunice Women's Clinic near Seongsu Station, Dr. Eun Mi-na explains the result in English as part of pregnancy planning. The non-covered price is 60,000 KRW, and results usually come within a few days.
What is the AMH test?
AMH (anti-Mullerian hormone) is made by small follicles in the ovaries. Because the level reflects how many small follicles are present, a blood test for AMH gives an estimate of your ovarian reserve. Ovarian reserve naturally declines with age.
It is important to know what AMH does and does not show:
- It estimates egg quantity, not egg quality.
- It does not predict whether you can get pregnant naturally this month or this year.
- It can help with planning, for example about timing of pregnancy or when to see a fertility specialist.
- High levels are often seen in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Who is the AMH test for?
- Women planning pregnancy who want information for timing decisions
- Women over about 35 who are trying to conceive
- Women with irregular periods or suspected PCOS
- Women with past ovarian surgery or other factors that may affect reserve
- Women considering egg freezing or fertility treatment, as a first step before referral
How does the AMH test work at the clinic?
- Consultation: Dr. Eun asks about your cycle, pregnancy plans and history, and explains what AMH can tell you.
- Blood draw: a small blood sample is taken. AMH can usually be tested on any day of the cycle.
- Additional checks if useful: a transvaginal ultrasound can count visible follicles, and other hormone tests may be suggested.
- Result review: the doctor explains your level compared with typical ranges for your age.
How should I prepare?
- No fasting is needed for AMH alone.
- Tell the doctor if you use hormonal contraception, as it can lower AMH levels slightly.
- Bring any previous hormone results.
How is AMH different from other fertility tests?
AMH is only one part of a fertility assessment. Other checks the doctor may discuss include an antral follicle count on ultrasound, cycle-day hormone tests, checks of the uterus, and, for couples, a semen analysis for the male partner at a urology clinic. Looking at several results together gives a clearer picture than any single number.
When will I get my results?
Results usually come within a few days; the clinic will tell you how you will receive them.

Frequently asked questions
Does a low AMH mean I cannot get pregnant?
No. Low AMH means fewer eggs remain, but it does not measure egg quality or predict natural pregnancy on its own. Many women with low AMH conceive. It may suggest not delaying pregnancy plans.
Do I need to take the AMH test on a specific cycle day?
Usually not. AMH is relatively stable through the cycle, so it can generally be tested on any day. Other hormone tests may need specific days. This makes it easy to add AMH to another visit.
Can the clinic help if my AMH is low?
The doctor explains your result and discusses options such as ovulation support or referral to a fertility specialist when needed. Individual results vary. She explains each option in English so you can plan with clear information.
