Is low luteinizing hormone an indication of premature ovarian failure?
Disease description:
Menstrual irregularities for the past six months; hospital tests revealed low luteinizing hormone. Is low luteinizing hormone indicative of premature ovarian failure?
Low luteinizing hormone (LH) levels may indicate premature ovarian failure. Luteinizing hormone is a gonadotropin secreted by anterior pituitary cells. If LH levels are found to be low, it is advisable to visit a hospital for an anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) test. If the results are abnormally low, this may be due to premature ovarian failure, and appropriate supplementation with estrogen and progesterone may be needed to improve ovarian function. It's important to maintain regular sleep patterns, avoid staying up late, and eat more legumes, fruits, vegetables, and other nutritious foods.
