Know where your fertility stands

A fertility check is a blood test (AMH) and a scan of your ovaries, read by a specialist. It shows roughly how many eggs you have now. It can't tell you whether you'll get pregnant, and that's why a doctor should explain it.

What a fertility check includes

1

AMH blood test

A blood sample from your arm. It can be done on any day of your cycle; results usually take a few days.

2

Ovary scan (AFC)

A short internal ultrasound that counts the small follicles in your ovaries, usually early in your cycle.

3

A doctor explains it

Your results read alongside your age, your cycle and your plans, and what (if anything) to do next.

Your doctor may also suggest other hormone tests (FSH, oestrogen, prolactin, thyroid) depending on your cycle and symptoms.

What it can and can't tell you

It can tell you

✓ Roughly how many eggs you have now

✓ How you might respond to egg freezing medication

✓ Early signs of PCOS or menopause (with other tests)

It can't tell you

✕ Whether you can get pregnant naturally

✕ The quality of your eggs

✕ Exactly when your menopause will start

Typical AMH by age

Age 25–296.4 – 70.3
Age 30–344.1 – 58.0
Age 35–391.1 – 53.5

Common questions

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can book a private fertility check directly with any of the doctors above.

Can I have an AMH test on the pill?

It's usually recommended to stop hormonal contraception a few months before. Ask the doctor in your free call.

Do at-home AMH tests work?

They use a finger-prick sample, which can be hard to get enough of. A doctor still needs to explain the result.

How much does a fertility check cost?

It depends on the doctor and what's included. Each doctor's profile shows their prices.
