• The Ovarian Reserve refers to how many eggs remain in a woman's ovaries at any given time.
• Women are born with a set number of about 1 to 2 million eggs. As we age, this number decreases as eggs die off or are released during ovulation. When there are no more eggs left, a woman is not fertile anymore and she enters menopause. The timeline for this process differs from woman to woman - you could say, that our biological clocks tick differently.
• That also means, that our fertility timelines are different: Some women might still have a fairly large Ovarian Reserve in their 30ies and therefore are likely to have no trouble conceiving until their late 30ies. However, others, with less eggs remaining, might have trouble having kids naturally.

• The Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) is a key indicator to measure a woman's Ovarian Reserve, meaning how many eggs are left in her ovaries at a given time.
• AMH is a hormone that is produced by ovarian follicles in a woman's ovaries.
• The concentration of AMH in a woman’s blood correlates with the number of eggs she has left, making it the most commonly used indicator to determine a woman's Ovarian Reserve.

• Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) is a key indicator of a woman's ovarian reserve—meaning it gives insight into how many eggs she still has left in her ovaries.
• While it doesn’t measure egg quality, it helps estimate how much time she has left to conceive naturally or whether fertility preservation (like egg freezing) might be a good option.
• Your AMH level helps you decide when to have kids based on your fertility window. If your AMH is high, you may have more flexibility. If it’s low, you might want to start planning sooner or explore fertility preservation.

• Age is the most significant factor impacting the Anti-Müllerian Hormone level. Younger women generally have higher AMH levels than older women.
• Other factors include ovarian surgeries, chemotherapy or radiation therapy, endometriosis, autoimmune diseases, smoking, and endocrine disruptors.
• Hormonal birth control and the phase of the cycle also have an impact on the AMH value.
• Additionally, some vitamins like vitamin D can affect the AMH value.

• The primary determinant of a woman's fertility is the quantity of her remaining eggs.
• The quantity of eggs remainining in a woman's ovaries at any given time is called Ovarian Reserve.
• Women are born with a set number of about 1 to 2 million eggs. As we age, this number decreases as eggs die off or are released during ovulation.
• When there are no more eggs left, a woman is not fertile anymore and she enters menopause. The timeline for this process differs from woman to woman - you could say, that our biological clocks tick differently.
• That also means, that our fertility timelines are different: Some women might still have a fairly large Ovarian Reserve in their 30ies and therefore are likely to have no trouble conceiving until their late 30ies. However, others, with less eggs remaining, might have trouble having kids naturally.

• Aside from the quantity of your eggs, their quality also affects fertility.
• However, the quality of your eggs can only be assessed after retrieving eggs from your ovaries.

Aside from the quantity and quality of your eggs, your fertility is also affected by some other factors such as

• uterus malformations
• fibroids or adenomyosis (type of the endometriosis)
• damage of the falopian tubes and the reproductive organs due to infections, endometriosis as well comprehensive surgical interventions
