I've just turned 44 and have been perimenopausal for about 2 years. I've had 3 very light periods this year and have had hot flushes throughout the day the last couple of months. A blood test last week revealed FSH levels are 155!! I am freaking out because everything I read says postmenopausal levels are over 30. How can I be 5 times that? Is it likely I'm now post menopausal and therefore had an early menopause? My dr is clueless as per many other threads. HRT not straight forward for me as my mum is thrombophiliac. I am feeling so anxious about it as levels that high seem so abnormal. I have anxiety anyway which is worse recently so appreciate I might be over reacting!
