What could this mean?

I haven’t had a period in three years, I put it down to the fact I still breastfeeding my 2 year old. I started to wonder if it was something else so just went to the doctors to speak to them. He suggested I get my bloods done and a scan on my ovaries. I got my bloods done last week and received a really vague text from my doctor this evening that said - one of your hormone markers was raised and needs further investigation. Please make an appointment to discuss this after you have your scan. What does this mean?? I have such bad health anxiety and now I’m just a worried mess. My scan isn’t booked until early September. What could this mean??

How old are you, anywhere near menopausal age? It could possibly mean PCOS, or a thyroid issue, etc, but we can only guess. Try not to stress! You could contact your surgery and see if they can elaborate a little, as a vague text isn't helpful.
