Low oestrogen?

2 replies

Has anyone had low oestrogen? Was initially diagnosed with PCOS due to cysts on my ovaries but now blood tests show low oestrogen but everything else just in the normal guidelines. Worried that Clomid isn't going to work for me now! Any tips/success stories? Read about hypothalamic amenorrhea and worried I have that now even though BMI is 20 and don't over exercise anymore. Any advice appreciated ! X

Hi, I have just found out I have low oestrogen too. I already have a son through fertility treatment but it took along time as clomid didn't work for me, my lining wouldn't thicken. I had IUI which was successful and am waiting for to have it again. You say you don't overexercise anymore, this was a problem for me too. I had an eating disorder and have never had periods. I hope you have success in the future.

Thanks Fionabeeb, have sent you a PM but would be great to hear what drugs you were on for iui and what BMI you were. Fingers crossed for both of us! Have started eating full fat dairy and more good fats as read that can increase oestrogen x
