Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

A low FSH in a woman after menopause could have a few causes.The endocrinologist is a good choice for specialities. If there is dysfunction in the Pituitary or hypothalamus then this would cause a low FSH. Certain medications including hormone replacement therapy can also do it
