Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

FSH/LH: An FSH of 17 is not that high and would not likely reflect premature ovarian failure especially with a normal LH level. Lab results must be interpreted in the proper clinical context. To better interpret these results your doctor will need to know your menstrual and medical history.
