Just had a blood hormone levels test done, can someone tell me what these levels indicate?
Luteinizing hormone: 34.60mUI/mL, FSH: 86.90 mUI/mL, Progesterone: 0.71ng/mL, Prolactine: 11.10ng/mL, Estradiol: Less than 20.0 pg/mL, Testosterone: 29.80ng/mL
Could these levels be as a result of stress? Or is it a clear inication of menopause with no doubt at all?
Or maybe not menopause but pre-menopause and then no possibility left of becoming pregnant. This is what really interests me.
im no ob/gyn. as such i can only tell you that menopause is defined as 1 year without menses. so if its been a year since you last bled, then thats menopause with no doubt at all.

does anyone else suffer from effects of menopause like severe Hot Flashes and excessive sweating?
I am 55 and I just find it hard to handle this awful sweating where it runs into my ears and down my neck and face, and I was taking harmone replacements, but stopped due to so much risk involved with taking it. HELP
yeah, i'm right there with ya hon! i had a complete hysterectomy 3 years ago due to medical problems. i don't take the hormones because of the risks with bone loss and they make my face break out something awful. mine are worse at night and interfere with sleeping. 50 degrees outside and i have th AC on full blast!! i have found that when my feet are cooler, my whole body is cooler. sometimes i just soak my feet in cold water for a while.
