A few months ago, I was diagnosed with PCOD, which improved after taking medication. Since then, I have been trying to lose weight, but progress has been very slow over the past 7 months. My periods are now normal, but my gynecologist is suggesting an AMH test. I am confused about what this test will reveal. How does the AMH test help in understanding PCOD and its potential for recovery or curability?

AMH reflects ovarian reserve, PCOD severity. High in PCOD due to many small follicles. Does not confirm curability, but helps plan treatment. Slow weight loss is common in PCOD. AMH helps in fertility and PCOD management.

My wife HSG test report is attached. The doctor says she has a half uterus and a single blocked fallopian tube. We would like to know what we should do next. Can we go for hysteroscopy and laparoscopy, or consider IVF? Which option is better for us, with a higher chance of success, lower risk, and less pain? Please guide us.

After undergoing appropriate blood and urine tests, my report shows that my Anti Mullerian Hormone level is high at 12.41. Could this be the reason for my significant weight gain (from 65 kg in 12th class to 79 kg in my second year of college)? Are there any medicines or precautions I should take for this?
