At what age is it recommended to do a blood test to assess the number of eggs?

There is no ideal age for assessing ovarian reserve and the number of eggs available in a woman. This hormone analysis is usually carried out when a woman has problems in achieving pregnancy and goes to a fertility centre. A blood test to determine hormone levels is essential in the study of a woman's fertility.

However, any woman can undergo a blood test to check her condition and the number of eggs available at any given time.
