What to do if follicle stimulating hormone is high

The structure of the female reproductive system is relatively complex. For example, the ovaries play a very important role in the reproductive system because the main function of the ovaries is to promote the release of eggs. Before being discharged from the body, the egg mainly exists in the ovary in the form of follicles, and follicle-stimulating hormone is a hormone that promotes the maturation of follicles. But what should a woman do if she is diagnosed with high levels of follicle-stimulating hormone?

Overview

Follicle-stimulating hormone is a very important hormone in the female body. Its main function is to stimulate the production of follicles. Generally speaking, fluctuations in the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone will have a certain impact on the female body. For example, if the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone is too high, it means that the ovarian function is not well developed. At the same time, if the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone is too low, it will affect women's normal menstruation. So what measures should we take against the abnormality of follicle-stimulating hormone? Today we will discuss this issue.

How to treat high blood follicle-stimulating hormone

First: 1 Under normal circumstances, the normal value of follicle-stimulating hormone for ordinary women should be within the following ranges. During the follicular phase, the value is generally 1.37~9.9U/L, during the ovulation phase, the value is 6.17~17.2U/L, during the luteal phase, the value is 1.09~9.2U/L, and during menopause, the value is 19.3~100.6U/L.

Second: In clinical medicine, follicle-stimulating hormone is usually referred to as FSH. By monitoring the FSH level in the early stage of follicles, we can obtain a lot of information, the most important of which is the preliminarily judgment of the function of the gonad axis. Therefore, it is very important to monitor your own FSH through regular physical examinations.

Third: Generally speaking, if the value of follicle-stimulating hormone is greater than 40IU/L, we can usually determine it as hypergonadotropic amenorrhea, which is what we often call ovarian failure. If the follicle-stimulating hormone is less than 5 IU/L, it generally indicates hypothalamic or pituitary dysfunction. However, when the value is greater than 12 IU/L, it indicates poor ovarian reserve function.

Precautions

Generally speaking, abnormalities in follicle-stimulating hormone usually manifest as vulvar pain, postpartum hemorrhage, female infertility, pelvic mass, leucorrhea, dysmenorrhea, pain during intercourse, premature menopause, heavy menstrual flow, amenorrhea and other related symptoms. If such symptoms occur, please go to the hospital for medical treatment in time for diagnosis.
