why didn't your doctor explain the results to you? – monstermash Nov 15 2011 at 20:21

I have no idea what's going on here. – FED at LiveCaveman.com Nov 15 2011 at 22:02
All I can tell is that you are not post-menopausal from this. You really need to make a follow up appointment and have them explain this to you to your satisfaction. If they gloss over things or you don't understand make sure they explain it further. I'm surprised they didn't send you for an ultrasound of your ovaries too. – Happy Now Nov 16 2011 at 5:50

Unless one of our Paleohackers is an OB/GYN, I'd say NONE of us are qualified to answer this for you. You really should call your doctor's office. If they gave you this without explaining, then shame on them. Good luck, I hope you find the answers you need.

Agreed. Also, the interpretation is dependent on what kind of FSH assay and your age. – Dragonfly Nov 16 2011 at 5:54
