Normal FSH, low lh????

has anyone had this before?? I'm not sure if this is problem for me. My gp ran some preliminary tests and i know FSH was one of them. her office called to tell me that all of my tests were 'normal'. I should have had a positive OPK test on Friday, but I only had faint lines on Saturday and Sunday. Completely negative today. Is it possible to have a normal FSH and low LH? My understanding is that they are both triggered by the same part of the brain. THanks for any thoughts!

I wouldn't put too much stock in the OPKs. Many women never get a + reading. It's a good sign that your FSH is normal though.

I've heard that OPK's never work for some women (I haven't used them yet, so sorry I'm not much help.) It's good to hear that your levels are good though. Good luck!

sometimes you just have to try different brands of opks. they aren't all the same. i personally had luck with clearblue easy (2 lines) i've had lucky with the CBE digitals too, but they are very very expensive.

I have never had a true positive on a regular stick (ICs or the Answer brand), but I got my + on digitals last month!

I agree that everyone reacts differently to differen OPKs... I can't use the Answer brand- I always get a positive no matter where I am in my cycle, yet the IC's work great for me. It's great that your FSH is good though!
