Hormone Test Results- PCOS Maybe? Or Something?

Emmi-Pie · Apr 5th, 2010, 21:11 PM

Hey, everyone. I'm Em..DH and I have been TTC for 3 years, no luck. My ultrasound came back normal. I recently had hormones tested.

Just so you know, it's been 6 months since my last period. These were tested last week. It's okay to get them tested at this time, right?

Estradiol: 30.9

Progesterone: 0.3

LH: 9.4

FSH: 7.2

Testosterone: 40

Prolactin: 8.9

Thyroid: 0.272

I know my thyroid is low. I was diagnosed last year with Hashimoto's Disease, when my TSH was 3.7, and TPO was 701. It's been dropping since meds, and I know that's a bit lower. My doctor wants to retest that in 3 months; I was getting it tested every 4-6 months since diagnosis.

My question: Would my LH have to be dramatically higher than my FSH in order for it to be considered PCOS? Or is a slight elevation normal?

Thank you everyone. I'm in the process of finding a new OB/GYN

I was diagnosed with PCOS in Feb 09 via ultrasound.

I recently changed doctors and he done 21 days bloods as he didnt think I had PCOS. My test results came back fine except my testosterone was a little high so he hasn't totally ruled out me having PCOS as high testosterone is a sign!

My Testosterone results were 3.1 when an average womans is 2.8 *Thats what my gp said*

If your ultrasound was fine and there was no cysts on your ovaries (which you would of been told there and then if there was) then I think you probably don't have PCOS xxx
