?premature menopauseFrom: Dr. John Teo M.R.C.O.G (mstmy95@tm.net.my)Tue Aug 3 06:29:58 1999
I have a 29 years old patient recently married with a history of spontaneous irregular periods cycle length about 3 to 6 months and the duration of period being a few days and scanty. hormonal profile showed very high FSH and LH with FSH of about 70 - 80 IU/L and LH of 30 - 40 IU/L on repeated occasions.All other hormonal profiles are normal. She has no menopausal symptoms. My question is in view of her having spontaneous period albeit irregular signifying a well estrogenised endometrium and by implication not estrogen depleted, does she still need estrogen replacement therapy? Is she truly menopause? What is her possible diagnosis?
-- Yours sincerely, John Teo
