FSH levels. When a woman's FSH levels are higher than 25, this indicates that a woman is very close to menopause, according to Epigee.org. During peri-menopause, the period of time that precedes menopause, FSH levels continue to rise because a woman's body is still making the effort to ovulate.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results. Estradiol (E2) levels below the premenopausal reference range in young females indicate hypogonadism. If luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels are elevated, primary gonadal failure is diagnosed.
