How to treat low luteinizing hormone

1. Progesterone supplementation: If examination determines that a woman's progesterone level is low and endometrial secretion is poor during the luteal phase, progesterone supplementation can be used as replacement therapy.

2. Human chorionic gonadotropin: When the follicles are close to maturity, the use of human chorionic gonadotropin can induce ovulation. Taking medication after ovulation can stimulate the development of the corpus luteum, support corpus luteum function, increase progesterone synthesis, and prolong the life of the corpus luteum.

3. Because the corpus luteum cannot shrink and degenerate as scheduled or degenerates incompletely and continues to secrete a small amount of progesterone, the endometrium cannot be shed at the normal time. The clinical manifestations are normal menstrual cycle, but prolonged menstruation, which can reach 9-10 days or even longer, not too much flow, and biphasic basal body temperature, but it only drops during menstruation.
