Okay. Thanks. Any suggestions on lowering fsh levels?

If you have been trying this long, it's time to see a fertility specialist. Both you and your partner will need to be tested.

Remember that men can be sterile too. ;)

Thanks. I spoke to one and at 35 years old my fsh is at 13, which is considered on the high end. I wanted to try natural ways to lower it that were cheaper. My husband hasn't gotten checked yet... he has been putting it off

You won't know who the culprit is until he gets checked. It is possible his sperm count is too low for pregnancy to occur.

Thanks appreciate the help, advice, and support.

My fsh level is at 13. That could also have to do with it?

Your FSH level is good. It's rising numbers that are concerning. Once your levels are over 30 you are in perimenopause.

I'm inclined to believe that your husband may not have an adequate sperm count.

Got it. Thanks. The dr made it seem like my level was too high

Here is how it works...

FSH levels in women:

Premenarchal (a young girl before she has her periods) 0 - 4
Through puberty 0.3 - 10
Menstrual 4.7 - 21.5
Perimenopausal - Higher than 30
Menopausal - Higher than 50
Postmenopausal - 30 - 134.8

So, from that chart, you are in a perfect range to have a child.
