Caused by low corpus luteum

If a woman has insufficient corpus luteum, it is easy to lead to unsuccessful conception, and sometimes habitual miscarriage may occur, which is very harmful to women's health. There are many reasons for insufficient corpus luteum, which is related to the insufficient secretion of gonadotropin by the anterior pituitary gland. In addition, long-term use of contraceptives can easily lead to low corpus luteum, which will reduce the chance of conception in women, and sometimes conception can easily cause miscarriage.

What is the cause of low luteinizing hormone? The so-called luteinizing hormone is a very important hormone in the process of pregnancy. Its important function is to make mature follicles rupture and ovulate. But many women find that their luteinizing hormone is low through examination. What is the reason? Let's find out together.

Experts at the Infertility Hospital said that luteinizing hormone is a type of gonadotropin secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. It acts on the corpus luteum or luteal cells of the ovary to promote the secretion of progesterone. Low luteinizing hormone can be caused by pituitary dysfunction, obesity genital degeneration syndrome, and long-term use of contraceptives.

If the luteinizing hormone level of pregnant women is low, it is easy to cause luteal insufficiency. Luteal insufficiency is an important factor leading to female infertility. Luteal insufficiency causes insufficient secretion of progesterone in women, which reduces the pregnancy rate of women. Even if they are pregnant, the fertilized egg cannot be implanted normally, which is easy to cause miscarriage.

In addition, some patients with low luteinizing hormone may experience menstrual disorders, such as shortened menstrual cycle, menorrhagia, frequent menstruation, prolonged menstruation (up to 9-10 days or even longer), etc., which affect women's normal life.

The above is an introduction to the "causes of low luteinizing hormone". Low luteinizing hormone generally has no obvious symptoms and can be diagnosed through six sex hormone tests.
