Are These Hormone Levels Normal?

I had a hysterectomy and my ovaries removed. I have gained a to of weight, had hot flashes, depression and just the feeling things are not right. I had my homone levels checked and got the following results:
Estradiol - 21
FSH - 90.76
Progesterone - .53
Testosterone - 34.5
Are these levels ok?

Endocrinologist 's  Response
Hello,
Good day. You have not mentioned the units of these tests. The FSH is high in keeping with the removal of Ovaries. How old are you?
If you have hot flashes and dryness in vagina etc, you may need topical estrogen cream or estrogen pills. Please write back with the units of these tests. ( However, the estrogen and progesterone levels are low) .

This is what we expect after the ovaries are removed and to be frank, there is no need of blood test to prove it. Regarding Testosterone, we need the units to assess the result. Could you provide us the details?
