Menopause : You can consider an endocrinologist. Otherwise depending on where uou are in your cycle can also change your fsh levels. If still having a period, technically not menopausal. I always say trest the patient not the labs. Consider looking at your FSH/LH ratio. Peri menopause can occur at anytime depending on a lot of variables. Maybe repeat labs and consider a pelvic ultrasound.
