Could I be in Menopause
Hi, I'm 46 and just had my FSH level tested. It was 85.5 could I be in menopause? I haven't had a period for 4 months. What else could cause my FSH to be high?

Thanks, Yes the research I have done would indicate menopause. I was wondering if anyone else is going through this same thing? Has anyone had a high FSH level that your doctor said you were menopausal? What was your FSH level? Only a year ago my FSH level was a 6. Now its 85.5. Can it go up that much in a year? My doctor told me 6 months ago that one of my ovaries has shrunk.Originally Posted by Amy7
46 is not too early for Menopause and while I'm not a doctor is not the FSH the signal that tells your ovaries to produce Estradiol? So, if your ability to produce is going away (Menopause) the FSH would be very high? BTW DO read up on Hormone replacement and give a thought to Bioidenticals. Its working great for me.

Amy7,
I checked out this web site posted by another member, and found it interesting... I am 47 and enjoying life even though menopause has arrived..... Hope it helps as a reference.

'35 symptoms of Menopuase' (an actual website...check it out)...
The "35 symptoms" site is what got me to here. My wife is now convinced that despite the fact that it's earlier than when her mom went through menopause she's actually starting to go through it herself.
