Aim to demonstrate that:
Technical issues with AMH measurement are now resolved by Roche
Randomised controlled trials now confirm AMH better than all other biomarkers for ovarian response prediction
Optimising ovarian response is critical for optimal outcome

AMH will be the biomarker of choice for individualising stimulation
Iliodromiti, Anderson & Nelson Hum Repro Update 2014
![Page 64: Do you have what it takes – from follicle to healthy baby? Scott Nelson Muirhead Chair in Obstetrics & Gynaecology.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081908/56649e0d5503460f94af699a/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Conclusions:
We now have a robust automated AMH assay from Roche
RCTs confirm that AMH is superior to all other biomarkers
AMH can be used to personalise reproductive potential and therapy
