Question about Estrogen levels
I had my estrogen levels checked for the second time in Oct (got the results yesterday). In June I was in chemo pause. I am 48 years old but I never felt like I went thru menopause. I am interested in joining a SOFT trial (Ovarian suppression trial) for pre menopausal women. This last blood work showed my FSH at 24.5 (normal for post menopausal) LH at 20.8 (normal for post menopausal). BUT here’s what freaks me out. My estrogen level is 933. That is way off any normal scales. My ONC wants to run the test again and so do I, but 933 has any one heard of that???
I went to the web and found to my horror that high estrogen levels can mean ovarian cancer. Should I freak???
