Hi

The cause of irregular periods such as polycystic ovaries,obesity and hypothyroidism should be treated effectively.

FSH and LH are often both in the range of about 4-8 in young fertile women.These levels should be evaluated.Pelvic ultrasound,TSH, Free T3,T4 levels should also be tested.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
