Anti-Mullerian Hormone

Anti-Mullerian Hormone or AMH is a hormone present in the body of women. The level of this hormone increases and decreases according to the stage a female’s menstrual cycle is in. Testing or mapping this hormone gives a strikingly accurate idea about the state of a patient’s fertility and is considered more precise and reliable than any other fertility tests such as testing the FSH or Follicle Stimulating Hormone levels in the body.

This test is normally done on women who are having trouble conceiving or are getting a test tube baby treatment to have a baby. Most of the time, these women are tested positive for low levels of AMH hence proving that they are facing infertility issues.

Once a patient is tested with low levels of AMH, it is recommended by Jaipur based IVF specialists to get a secondary test done in order to make sure that they are indeed suffering from infertility problems. Furthermore, they add that these additional tests include an antral follicle count test done via an ultrasound and a clomid challenge test done with the help of a blood test.

Patients usually wonder why they need to take more tests when it has already been proven that they have low AMH levels. The reason is that these tests confirm that AMH levels are low and additionally determine how low they are. Unless the quantity is not dangerously low, not much action is required. In fact, the levels can be improved with a few changes of lifestyle such as exercising, eating healthy, Yoga, etc.  

Patients must be informed

Experienced IVF doctors from the top fertility centers in Jaipur enunciate that it is vital for infertile patients to be well aware of what they are suffering from. However, it is sad that there are many patients who have no idea about what is going on with them and why they are unable to have children. Specialists from reputed surrogacy centers claim that not only patients, but doctors too can be ignorant towards their patients. Some reasons behind the failure of IVF treatments include:-

• Illiteracy – Unfortunately, there is still a large chunk of the population that is not even basically educated. They cannot access the internet, they cannot read from magazines and they find it difficult to understand a lot of the things explained to them about their health. In addition, most of such illiterate people belong to backward and reclusive communities where even talking about anything related to fertility is considered taboo. Hence, such patients remain bereft of the miracle that an IVF treatment can be.
• Ignorance of the doctors – When a misinformed patient comes to a doctor, it is their duty to put in some efforts to teach them and inform them well about their condition. Additionally, an informed patient is helpful for the doctor as they would not have to taught about their health problems hence, saving a lot of time.
• Ignorance of the patients – Patients must try and gather as much information regarding their health issues as they can to not only prepare themselves prior to seeing a doctor but to also make themselves capable of actively participating in their treatment.  

Second opinions are more important than you think!

We have heard about so many instances of unnecessary surgeries performed on patients that we have lost count. Expert IVF doctors from Jaipur intone that many doctors, who are corrupt and only focused on how much they shall get to earn by taking up the case of a patient, will undoubtedly suggest costly and extensive surgeries that are not required at all.  

Laparoscopy, for instance, is highly recommended by such doctors, it is a procedure that entails the removal of tissues, which appear outside the womb leading to Endometriosis, from the uterus. Now, this surgery is serious and cannot be taken lightly. It is not something that can be mindlessly recommended and easily performed on patients. IVF specialists from the most renowned IVF clinics in Rajasthan state that not all cases of Endometriosis require an intensive surgery like Laparoscopy. Many times, this condition has to be left completely untouched as the body is capable of dissolving the cysts and fibroids formed. Furthermore, if this surgery is performed in rush, then there are chances that the uterus will have to endure unintended scratches, incisions and abrasions which could later cause trouble in the patient’s fertility and may even trigger infertility.

Therefore, it is extremely important that patients increase their knowledge and consult more than one doctor to make sure that they are on the right track. This is in no way something against their current doctor; however, to prevent oneself from going into the wrong direction or being the victim of a doctor’s poor judgment, second opinions are necessary.

It is important for patients to complaint.

A lot of people think that complaining to the doctor or manager about the services provided to them at their clinic or the treatment they received is not that important. However, IVF specialists in Jaipur emphasize that they need to know that it really is! When existing or experienced patients give their feedback about the treatment they received and all the technicalities associated with this treatment to the doctor, he or she is able to understand and realize where they are going wrong, state experts from the most regarded surrogacy centers of Rajasthan. For example, let’s say that a couple received an infertility treatment from a doctor. The treatment was successful but greatly stressful for the patients. The reason behind such stress was their confusion and oblivion about several issues regarding IVF. And when they tried clearing their doubts with the doctor, the doctor could not clear them well enough. Thus, the patients can complaint to the doctor about it telling him or her about the requirement of better communication from the doctor. If the doctor is good, he or she will accept their weakness and work on them. This would be immensely beneficial for them as well as their future patients who will not have to go through a treatment while being confused and tensed. Therefore, patients must consider giving their feedback as an essential part of their treatment.
