Our testing partners
Ovarian Reserve Test
In partnership with IHD, we’ve sponsored the creation of an Ovarian Reserve Test which measures Anti-Mullerian Hormone, or AMH. AMH tests shows you how many potential eggs could be retrieved during an ovarian stimulation cycle. It’s very important to recognize that this test does not measure your natural fertility or tell us anything about your egg quality, which is much more important for conception and fertilization in an IVF cycle. This Ovarian Reserve Test is to empower and educate you, it is not a fertility test.
Sperm Test
The sperm test includes a telehealth appointment with a fertility specialist following your at home semen analysis. The telehealth appointment includes Fertility 101, an interactive discussion which provides the post sex-ed material you need to understand anatomy and the steps you can take to optimize your sperm quality. The specialist will also discuss lifestyle and behavioral activities that can impact your fertility along with recommendations to improve your chances of conception.
At mate, it is our mission to make fertility care accessible and affordable. We believe that becoming educated about reproductive health can empower you to make informed decisions about your reproductive goals.

Ovarian Reserve Test:
Instructions for how to use the Ovarian Reserve Test and how submit your sample to IHD for testing services are provided by IHD in the Ovarian Reserve Test home sample collection kit. After you collect the test specimen all you have to do is drop it off at your nearest UPS with the return container and label provided by IHD. The Ovarian Reserve Test measures AMH, or Anti-Mullerian Hormone. AMH is a hormone produced by granulosa cells, or cells in the ovary that nurture and support developing eggs. Your AMH level is one in a series of tests that are used to estimate the number of eggs that may grow during an ovarian stimulation cycle (when hormones are injected to stimulate egg production), which is done as a part of an egg freezing, embryo freezing, or in-vitro fertilization treatment.
This helps physicians estimate how many eggs may be retrieved at the time of an egg retrieval. Although many factors determine the success of a treatment, the number of eggs can impact the probability of a successful treatment outcome. Your AMH does not tell us anything about your natural fertility or egg quality. Age is the best predictor of egg quality. AMH does not change during your menstrual cycle, so the blood sample can be taken at any time of the month – even while you are using oral contraceptives.
