Just found this board and hoping to get some advice.
In a nutshell I was due to start ivf two weeks ago and had a hormone blood test done with view to starting my injections the following day. Instead I was asked to come back into the hospital, and told by my consultant that I am infact peri menopausal! Apparently my FSH was 45, LH 23 and oestrogen below 92
My last blood test in November 2016 showed FSH of 4 and LH of 6 on day two of my period.
I've been offered no more blood tests, just been told I need to start HRT. Now I keep reading that bloods should be repeated before a definite diagnosis is made? I should also add that the last test wasn't done while I was on my period.
I'm only 38 and have no symptoms other than periods have been irregular since I came off pill a year ago. I'm so worried and confused. I have an appointment booked with my GP next week. Should I ask for another blood test?
