Your number is definitely not low, around ovulation estrogen peak to around 400. How long is your cycle?

Thanks for reply πŸ€—πŸ˜ƒ My cycle is about 29 days I seem to have gotten shorter menstrual and a lot lighter.

Wasn't sure if my result meant anything it was on blood work. Do you know if indicates perimenopause.

Thank you.

So I guess you ovulate around day 15, your estrogen will still grow. Do you have regular period ? Is hard to say if you perimenopausal, I don't have enough info 😊

Yeah regular but have gotten lighter over the last 2 years sometimes period only 3 days. I get a lot brain fog and tiredness.

My fsh was 5.3 ul

I don't know a lot about oestrogen or fsh.

Thank you πŸ€—

Do you have endometriosis? Your fsh is normal level, do you know your amh? Tiredness and brain fog are quite common close to period, second half of cycle. Talk to your professional if you are worried, but your levels seem fine. Try magnesium supliments and b12 for energy. Did you change your diet, exercise? Did they check your thyroid hormone. Sorry for the questions 😊

I'm in perimenopause, I'm 43, my fsh was 33, my periods for the last 4 months are all over the place. Every month is different, moods are crazy, brain fog, one day I'm fine, next day I don't recognise myself. Weight gain. Every woman is different but they are some symptoms of perimenopause.

I've not been tested for endometriosis. My magnesium was 0.99 said with healthy range. I might try that as a supplement though thank you x πŸ€—
