Brief Answer:
Blood test for AMH.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Blood test for Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is a good indicator of your ovarian reserve. It is secreted by cells in developing egg sacs (follicles). It can be done any time or day of your menstrual cycle.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
