Have Scanty Period, Very Little Flow. Done Ultrasound. FSH And LH High. On Duphaston. Taking Hormonal Tablets. Suggestion?
Hi ,
This is Vanita. I am 40 yrs 2 months old. For the last 8 years say from 2005 , I am experiencing scanty periods.My periods just last for a day and the flow is very little. I hv got my hormonal tests done a couple of times in the last 8 years and they have been normal. I have got my ultrasound done a couple of times and the doctor says nothing to worry. This time in Januray I got my hormonal tests done. The FSH nd LH were slighty higher. FSH was 15.7 . Then the doctor put me on estradiol valerate in March 2013 followed by Duphaston. In April I aws again put on Estradiol valerate and Modus. In May I hv been prescribed Estradiol Valerate and Modus . The is the third month of me taking hormonal tablets. But my blood flow has gone worse. I got the FSH and LH done again on day 2 . The reports are OK . FSH -4.70 and LH-7.34. I am really concerned now.
I am healthy - Height 5-1 and weight is 49-50 kgs for the last 8 years. I had lost a good amount of weightt is 2005.
I am looking at some solution to this problem.
Regards
Vanita

Hi, Looking at your history, I would suggest Thyroid function tests. Thyroid harmone also has effect on menses. Pl. consult an Endocrinologist for consultation. Thank you.
