 [ Symptoms ] i have not had a period in over 2 5 yrs do i need to stay on the pill [ Disease ] hi this fsh is elevated and it looks likely consistent with menopause or a lack of feedback to the pituitary gland from the production of estrogen for some time estrogen is related to the monthly development of follicular cysts which produce the ovum each month this high level of fsh would indicate that this has probably not occured in several months for some reason this reason may be menopause but that is as specific as i can be based on this result alone
