    Hormone level testing

    Hi, I have been researching my girl sway for a bit now and after some things I read on here and online I asked my doctor for my hormone levels to be tested.
    She said my testosterone and progesterone were normal but my fsh levels were high and nearly 3 times my LH level.
    Obviously I'm aware this isn't good, not for having a girl or for having another baby in general (our little boy is nearly 3) but can anyone here tell me just how bad it is? Anyone any experience?
    I've been referred to the fertility clinic

    Ok. Don't panic. All this means is that your fertility is just less than another person's might be, probably due to your age. It doesn't mean you can't get pregnant, just that it may take a bit of extra time for you and that we would adjust your sway in such a way as to boost overall odds of conception, by cutting out all the tactics that do not work and/or cut odds of conception hugely (such as timing, frequency patterns, pH, herbal supplements for both you and DH, antihistamine/Sudafed) and concentrate only on the things that do work - diet, exercise, limiting number of attempts. We have had hundreds of ladies on here with absolutely awful FSH go on to have healthy babies (and girls too!!)

    Thank you atomic so much for replying! I'm right to think it means a girl is less likely though aren't I? At this stage I'd be delighted with a healthy baby but desperately want to give my all to my sway so I have no regrets!

    My doctor said that basically I'm looking at a PCOS diagnosis, although my testosterone and progesterone levels were normal?? I do have high testosterone symptoms though and I've had miscarriages which I thought at the time could be down to low progesterone.

    Feeling lost and scared we are hoping to start swaying next month.

    No, you're not correct that a girl is less likely. We have great results with our PCOS swayers. YOu may need to follow one of the alternate diets in this thread http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...rt-3-pcos.html
