Blood test results

[Clare123]

I had blood tests last month. Unfortunately I have had very irregular cycles since coming off the pill in 2018, which the GP put down to PCOS, so it wasn't drawn on the recommended cycle day 3 as it's a nightmare to time anything round my cycles.

It's possible I could have been in the mid cycle range for LH. The FSH however is clearly above the mid cycle range and into the post menopausal range. I'm 42 later this week.

I spoke to the GP about the results but she basically said she doesn't like patients to see their own blood results (!) and that I'm clearly not menopausal as I'm still bleeding and my oestrogen is OK. I didn't feel she was either empathetic or well informed to be honest.

I have previous results from last few years as well, in brackets.

Any thoughts welcome, thanks..
