Title: why are LH ad FSH levels elevated in mennopausal females? Post by: caty12845 on Jul 22, 2013 why are LH ad FSH levels elevated in menopausal
Quote females?The levels of FSH and LH are usually controlled by negative feedback by high levels of estrogen and progesterone in approximately 28-day cycles. Menopausal women no longer have the ability to produce high levels of these hormones because they are out of mature eggs - the outer coating of the eggs produce most of the female sex hormones. Without the negative feedback, the LH and FSH levels remain high Title: Re: why are LH ad FSH levels elevated in mennopausal females?
