How are AMH and Wechseljahre related?

AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is produced by ovarian follicles and reflects the remaining egg reserve. As women age, AMH levels steadily decline and become nearly undetectable after menopause. Thus, AMH is used as a predictive marker for the timing of menopause: lower levels indicate closer proximity to the final menstrual period. However, individual prediction is limited because the rate of decline varies widely due to genetics, lifestyle, and other factors. Clinically, AMH is primarily used to assess fertility and guide assisted reproduction, not as a standalone menopause test. Official menopause diagnosis relies on menstrual history and FSH levels. The relationship between AMH and menopause is supported by strong human evidence (large cohort studies), but home tests like those from MyBody-X provide only a snapshot and should be interpreted by a physician. Caveat: a single AMH value cannot predict exact menopause age or symptom severity.
