Worried about early menopause? AMH will do the math for you

I want to ask you a question, what are the most feared by women today? Some people say they are afraid of poverty, others say they are afraid of loneliness. I guess the most feared thing is aging. And the ovaries play an important role in the aging process, it is the soul that dominates the woman, it makes the woman radiant, and it also makes the woman aging before aging, so we should pay attention to the ovaries. When the ovaries stop producing eggs, a woman enters menopause, also known as menopause. Menopause is the most special period for women, once women enter menopause, all aspects of the body will decline, endocrine disorders, so emotional instability has become a characteristic of menopause. Women in menopause are very fragile and need more care. So, what is menopause?

Xia Meng, director of the Laboratory Pathology Center of the Third People's Hospital of Hunan Province, introduced that menopause refers to the stage when the female ovarian reserve begins to decline to a complete stop, at which time the ovaries will lose their ability to secrete estrogen, and the World Health Organization named it perimenopause. Ovarian reserve is an important indicator to assess female fertility, which refers to the potential of the ovaries to produce the quantity and quality of eggs. As we age, the number of follicles decreases significantly. Some studies have found that the follicle density of women over 35 years old has decreased significantly, which is 1 4 of the follicle density of women under 35 years old, and the number of follicles in women over 40 years old has decreased sharply, and when the ovarian reserve function is completely depleted, women enter menopause.

How do we know what state our ovaries are in? This has to invite our "muse" to play. The "muse" AMH is a miracle hormone in our body, called anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), which can reliably and quickly evaluate the ovarian reserve, so as to know the fertility of women and the onset of menopause.

Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is a glycoprotein secreted by immature Sertoli cells and granulosa cells of anterior and minor antral follicles of the ovary. The higher the number of small antral follicles in the ovary, the higher the AMH concentration; On the contrary, when the follicles are gradually depleted with age and various factors, the concentration of AMH also decreases, and when it is close to menopause, AMH gradually tends to 0, which can be used as a marker of ovarian reserve.

That is, the lower the value of AMH, the worse the reserve function of the ovaries, the weaker the fertility of the woman, and the closer menopause is to us!

How can we detect AMH values? There are many advantages to detecting anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH):

1.It can be checked at any time, blood can be drawn, and it is completely independent of drugs and menstrual cycles.

2.It is possible to clearly determine the amount of egg stock.

The higher the AMH index, the greater the egg inventory. When the AMH index is low, it means that the ovaries are aging and the female fertility is declining.

3.Potential for development in reproductive medicine: AMH can play a huge role in IVF or IVF, and the AMH value can allow doctors to use ovulation injections, the dosage of drugs, and provide patients with more clear advice.

Finally, some suggestions for some young ladies who want to get pregnant but are difficult to conceive:

1.The AMH value fluctuates, so it is recommended to check it several times to make a comprehensive judgment by averaging the average.

2.With six sex hormones and B ultrasound, check whether there are mature and large follicles at the moment, as long as IVF is carried out as soon as possible, after all, every egg is extremely precious.

Having said all this, everyone must be very concerned about a question: how to increase the AMH value and keep women young forever?

In fact, this is a normal physiological process of human beings, and we must not go against human ethics. There is currently no associated reverse growth method to increase AMH, but there are many ways to slow the decline of AMH

1. Regular life and rest, go to bed early and get up early, especially if you can't stay up late, it is recommended to enter the sleep state before 11 o'clock, and long-term persistence can effectively improve endocrine disorders.

2. Actively exercise and enhance physical fitness.

3. Relax your mind and reduce the pressure of work and life.

4. Eat some foods rich in protein and vitamins, and you can also eat some antioxidant foods or take health care drugs.
