Low AMH
Low AMH
Holistic & Long-Lasting Relief through Ayurveda
Planning on conceiving but unsure where to start? What you should know is that several factors impact this, including your fertile window, sexual activity, egg and sperm health, and even hormones. The Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is one such hormone, which determines the ovarian reserve as well as its quality. Read on to know the significance of good AMH levels and how to achieve them to get pregnant.
Understanding AMH and Fertility
AMH indicates the number of eggs left in the ovaries. The reserve is depleted as you age, and ovaries start reducing the number of eggs released each month. The amount of reserve determines the fertility potential and natural conception. As the number of ova (eggs) decreases, fertility decreases. Lifestyle, environment, and reproductive issues may also affect AMH levels. Actually, low AMH treatments have proven useful in getting pregnant.
What Are the Symptoms of Low AMH?
Low AMH levels may not give obvious physical signs, but it does show some patterns in the body. Here are the common low AMH symptoms or patterns to be aware of:
- Irregular Menstrual Cycles:Low AMH can cause shortened, inconsistent periods due to hormonal imbalance.
- Difficulty Conceiving:Many women with low AMH levels face difficulty getting pregnant naturally, even after regular tries.
- Early Menopause:Some women with Low AMH levels may hit early menopause with symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, or irregular bleeding.
- Reduced Ovarian Stimulation:Poor response to fertility medications, causing limited egg growth, is also an indicator of low AMH.
Causes of Low AMH can range from biological to genetic to lifestyle-related factors; the main thing is to be aware of these causes. Here are some of the most common ones:
1. Age Factor:
- Natural decline of eggs in ovarian reserve is quite common for women over 35 years. Besides, the egg quality may also decrease at or after this age.
- Age inversely affects the AMH levels. That is, as the age of the woman increases, the AMH levels consequently decrease.
2. Genetic Factors:
- Some women may genetically inherit a low ovarian reserve, resulting in low levels of AMH.
- A family history of low AMH levels can increase the likelihood of early menopause in women who are closely related to such females.
- Lifestyle Causes:
- Lifestyle habits like smoking can damage the ovarian follicles and increase the rate of egg loss.
- Poor diet or obesity is another prominent reason for hormonal imbalance, eventually affecting ovarian reserves.
- Stress, especially chronic, negatively impacts reproductive hormones, indirectly affecting the levels of AMH
4. Medical Conditions:
- Endometriosis –A disease that can damage ovarian tissues and decrease egg supply.
- Ovarian Surgery –Though not necessary, ovarian surgeries can injure healthy follicles.
- Chemotherapy and Radiation– Cancer treatments can significantly affect the ovarian egg supply, eventually causing low AMH. Endometriosis.
Ayurveda view Low AMH as imbalance of Vata dosha due to depleted dhatus especially the shukra dhatu. Ayurveda supports the body by strengthening body’s own self-healing mechanism. It doesn’t rely on outside substance to fulfil the hormone level. Understanding the root cause of Low AMH helps to treat effectively. Rutu, Kshetra, Ambu and Beeja are the prime requisites for Garbhadharna. Beeja(Ovum) is most essential among them. Ayurvedic treatment gives a new hope in elderly women with depleted ovarian reserve. In Charaka Samhita, there is a effective, holistic and wide range of treatment modality for infertility based on Ayurvedic principles.
