Antimullerian-Hormone levels decrease in pre-menopausal women as the quality and number of ovarian follicles decline with age. It cannot measure the actual number of oocytes, but it strongly correlates with the size of the ovarian follicle pool.
Since a considerable proportion of subfertility is due to postponement of childbearing, measurement of ovarian reserve is of interest to women in general.
