Priscilla recently wrote in to Ask The Egg Whisperer a question. She had her AMH and FSH levels tested, and she is wondering if they are incorrect. Here's what she had to say, "Back in August, I did a test and my AMH came back at 0.9. My FSH was 15. I'm 34 years old. I have super regular cycles. Is there a chance the test is wrong? And do I have a chance of conceiving naturally?"

My short answer is this: There is a chance that the there's some lab variation. I'm not going to necessarily say that it's "wrong," but to know if it was truly accurate for you, I would recommend that you repeat it. I encourage people to track and trend their levels because one test gives you a snapshot of what is happening at just one time.  So don't just rely on one snapshot.

I think that's the mistake people make by not understanding their full diagnosis. Without checking your labs more than once, just one FSA, AMH, and Estradiol does not tell you the whole story. Sometimes, people rely one set of results, when the reality is if you checked your hormone levels one more time, you might have picked something up that you would not have picked up if you just relied on that first level. Be sure and check out my TUSHY Method for more info on how to get a diagnosis.
