Overview
laboratory findings
- An elevated serum of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) greater than 40 mIU/mL is diagnostic of menopause.
- An elevated FSH level on two blood samples is diagnostic of premature menopause with intervals of about 4–6 weeks between samples
- A decreased serum of the Anti-Mullerian Hormone level (AMH) is a diagnostic test of premature menopause and a low level of AMH is normal in the postmenopause period.
- A decreased of estrogen Hormone level in women with menopause.
- karyotype analysis and testing for an FMR1 for Fragile X syndrome.
