A member asked:

I only have one ovary left. my estrogen levels came back and it is 1042!? dr did us on remaining ovary and it's fine. why so high?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: Estrogen levels fluctuate throughout a woman's monthly cycle so the estrogen level measured depends on when in your cycle the test was collected. When women have only one ovary, the other will easily compensate to maintain normal hormone levels.
