Abstract

Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is a gonadal hormone synthesized by granulose cells of the ovary and Sertoli cells of the testis. Anti-Mullerian hormone is used to facilitate the evaluation of intersex disorders and as a marker in some ovarian tumors or ovarian reserve assessment in the infertility cases. Serum levels of AMH hold objective information, which is useful in the clinical practice. Therefore it is necessary to decimate the normal and the abnormal levels of AMH.
