LOL! You answered my questions. Are you a mind reader???? :-) Assuming I was in luteal the LH and FSH are "normal" but then does the ratio thing apply only at certain times of the month or are they always supposed to be closer together. I can't believe I can't remember this stuff. It's only been a year since I first read up on the blood test part of PCOS...you'd think I'd remember something! --Jenn
