What is the cause of high follicle stimulating hormone?

Many women lack understanding of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The main function of FSH is to promote the growth of ovaries and eggs. However, when the FSH level is high, they are also confused. Let us understand what high FSH is.

1. The main function of follicle-stimulating hormone is to promote the growth and development of ovaries and eggs. If the pituitary gland secretes too much follicle-stimulating hormone, high values ​​will appear, which is usually caused by disease.

2. If a woman suffers from primary uterine and ovarian failure, and after sex hormone removal surgery, the patient will experience high levels of follicle-stimulating hormone before ovulation. The occurrence of this type of condition usually means that there is a disease in the uterus and ovaries, such as incomplete uterine and ovarian development, ovarian damage, etc.

3. After suffering from hyperprolactinuria, the patient will also have high follicle-stimulating hormone levels, nearly 30% of which are caused by pituitary tumors. In addition, pituitary dysfunction, thyroid insufficiency, sternal damage and other diseases can cause the pituitary gland to metabolize excessive follicle-stimulating hormone.

High levels of egg-stimulating hormone converted into growth hormone can lead to female infertility, and even pregnancy can easily result in miscarriage. Therefore, if you are a woman who wants to get pregnant, you must go to a regular hospital as soon as possible to find out the actual cause of the high levels of egg-stimulating hormone, and start medication to restore the ovulation function of the uterus and ovaries as soon as possible, and promote the normalization of the ovulation cycle, so as to get pregnant as soon as possible.
