I was 38 when I hit peri menopause, had regular periods and my FSH was in low normal rage. My basic LH FSH bloods did not indicate menopause at all.

Your bloods indicate you are peri/menopausal. You may interpret it whichever way is more convenient to you.

Pituitary problem usually (levels are lower during ovulation). Not menopause or PCOS, that's high LH.

Hi this is second time my LH fsh have been high, few months ago these were tested and showed LH at 20 and fsh at 16, this time it was LH 22 and FSH at 13 I read Oestradiol wrong and that seems to be Ok, I'm not on contraception but had a tubal tie 10yrs ago, my period flow has changed but I'm still very regular, x

Sorry, I read that as low everything. High LH and FSH is menopause
