Title: Female hormone tests
Post by: Witchinghour on April 07, 2023, 05:10:35 PM
Hi all,

I had my female hormones checked a year ago and I've had conflicting advice as to whether is looks like the beginnings of peri or not.

I have symptoms but they could be connected to my thyroid.

Namely: tinnitus, migraines (with and without aura), anxiety, OCD, nightmares, an episode of night sweats, brain fog, loss of libido, irregular periods (and ever shortening cycle), noise sensitivity, fatigue... I could go on!  ;D

I'd like to be able to rule peri in or out really. I'm only 37 so I'd be young for peri I guess.
Test.              Range.           Result.   %through range
SHBG           23.4 - 128   88                   62%
FSH                   3.5 - 12.5   11.2           86%
LH                   2.4 - 12.6   6.3                   38%
Oestradiol   45.4 - 854   123                    9%
Testosterone  0.29 - 1.67   0.78           35%
FAI.                     0.2 - 7.1.        0.9                   10%
Prolactin    102 - 496   235                   34%

I'd be grateful for some thoughts!  :)
