Diminished Ovarian Reserve, commonly called DOR, means that the ovaries may have a lower number of remaining eggs or may respond less strongly to ovarian stimulation than expected for a person’s age.

DOR may be identified through a combination of age, medical history, AMH and FSH blood tests, antral follicle count, menstrual history, and previous fertility treatment response. A low AMH result alone does not determine egg quality or mean that pregnancy is impossible.

Because every fertility journey is different, test results should be reviewed as part of the complete clinical picture. An individualized plan may help clarify priorities, timing, and available fertility-care options.
