What is Luteinizing Hormone (LH)?
Luteinizing Hormone is measured as part of a female hormones panel. Your LH is within the typical reproductive-age range. LH surges mid-cycle, so timing matters for interpretation.
What does a high Luteinizing Hormone mean?
Your LH is elevated. A high LH (especially with a raised LH:FSH ratio) can be seen in PCOS, or it can indicate menopause depending on age and other hormones.
What does a low Luteinizing Hormone mean?
Your LH is low, which is interpreted in the context of your cycle and other hormones.
