Theresa & Teresa: (That's a little confusing girls!) It is my understanding that the LH FSH ratio does vary throughout your cycle, Did the doctor ask what day of your cycle you were in? are you on BCP? I have heard that BCP can give you "false normal" reads on hormone tests. Anyone know if your LH FSH ratio can read normal but you could still have PCOS? Theresa: I'm sorry that your appointment didn't go well, I was really hoping for you that you would get some solid answers. Hopefully the Met will help, let us know how things go for you, Teresa: let us know what happens with your test results, Take care! At Wed, 7 Jun 2000, Teresa wrote: >
