What is the normal value of luteinizing hormone?

Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone can promote ovulation, which helps to successfully conceive. If the luteinizing hormone is too high or too low, it will affect the chances of female pregnancy. If it is too low, progesterone should be supplemented in time. In addition, if it is caused by endocrine disorders or diseases, timely treatment should be carried out. Pay attention to diet conditioning and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables.

Luteinizing hormone is involved in the ovulation promotion of follicle-stimulating hormone, promoting the formation and secretion of estrogen and progesterone, promoting testicular synthesis, and secreting androgen. Normal values ​​of luteinizing hormone: Men: 1.2~7.8U/L; Women: follicular phase, 1.65~15U/L; luteal phase, 0.61~16.3U/L; ovulation phase, 21.9~56.6U/L; menopause, 14.2~52.3U/L.

What are the dangers of low luteinizing hormone? 1. Directly lead to infertility: The endometrium of women with low luteinizing hormone cannot be shed at the normal time. The endometrium before menstruation still remains in the early secretory stage, and the secretory response is poor. There is a slight curvature on the endometrium, which makes it difficult for women to conceive and leads to infertility. 2. Menstrual disorders: Some patients with low luteinizing hormone will experience menstrual disorders, such as shortened menstrual cycle, heavy menstruation, frequent menstruation, prolonged menstruation (up to 9-10 days or even longer), etc., which makes female friends very painful.

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.

High levels of luteinizing hormone are caused by endocrine disorders, so the fundamental purpose of treatment is to restore the body's natural endocrine regulation rather than relying on the replacement effects of hormonal drugs (contraceptives). During the medication period, even if the body returns to "normal", it is an illusion caused by the coercion of exogenous hormones, rather than the body's endocrine system returning to normal operation. Note: Hormonal drugs will only make your endocrine disorder progressively worse. The more hormonal drugs you take, the more difficult it will be to cure the disease.
