Brief Answer:
Mean corpuscular Haemoglobin

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic,

MCH means Mean corpuscular Haemoglobin which denotes the average amount of haemoglobin dispersed in each RBC cell.
MCH is routinely done under category of Complete blood picture. Normal value is 27 to 36.
Which is normal in your case. It will be decreased in case of Anaemia.
