Results of first 2 blood tests, 30 days apart. Most tests not repeated. Never tested for anything but tsh before, which was always in range.
TsH 1.26 (1.8-2.5)
FSH 12.1 (1.5-9.1) only tested once
Progesterone 2.9 (2.6-21.5) tested once
estradiol 258 (56-214) tested once
Total testosterone 27 first test, 41 second test (2-45)
All vitamin/mineral tests were in higher part of reference range. Iron was not tested.
After first blood test doc put me on compounded testosterone 3mg. Then retested as above. He has now upped my testosterone to 4 mg. My t3 was also low so her prescribed .5mcg cytomel twice a day. Not sure if that’s related in any way.
I feel somewhat better - still tired and very Painful periods (all tests from gynecologist were good), less heavy bleeding, hair falling out, sleeping a bit better and still unable to lose weight. Horrible pms and cramping, tender (understatement) breast’s.
Anyone have any insight On what these tests mean or what I should take? I would have thought he’d prescribe progesterone cream, but doc said it wasn’t needed. So frustrated. Really at this point, almost 59, I just want my periods to cease, but still just waiting it out.
Thanks in advance
