Should women with ovarian dysfunction be tested for anti-Müllerian hormone?

Patient's question:

Today I went to check the six sex hormones, on the third day of my period... The results showed low estradiol, and the rest were normal. The doctor didn't explain why it was low. My menstrual cycle is about 40 days, so I went to check the six hormones... Because I have acne on my face, the doctor at West China Hospital prescribed Dian 35. I started taking it on the third day of my period last month. I finished one box.

Doctor's answer:

From the test results alone, the level of follicle-stimulating hormone is more than twice that of luteinizing hormone, while estrogen is also low. This condition is generally more common in people with ovarian dysfunction. However, since you are so young, it seems unlikely. Have you had any other illnesses? It is recommended to check for anti-Müllerian hormone to see if the ovaries are truly showing signs of early aging. If so, it is advisable to start treatment early, as it may affect future fertility.
