Low AMH Levels Rising Among Young Indian Women
Doctors in India are noticing that young women have lower levels of a hormone (AMH) that shows how many eggs they have left.
This is happening earlier in life than usual, even in women in their twenties and thirties.
Things like pollution, what we eat, and how stressed we are may be playing a role.
AMH tests help women understand their fertility.
It's becoming more common for women to get tested, especially if they are having trouble getting pregnant or planning to have children later.
Experts say learning about AMH should be part of health lessons so women can plan for their future.
A growing number of young Indian women are showing low AMH levels, a key indicator of ovarian reserve.
This trend is occurring in women even in their late twenties and early thirties.
Factors such as environmental stressors, lifestyle choices, and genetics contribute to this issue.
AMH testing is becoming more common for both infertility investigations and proactive reproductive planning.
Experts suggest that AMH awareness should be part of health education.
