FSH, Serum 65.9
Estradiol 10.0 pg/mL
Follicular phase 3.5
Ovulation phase 4.7
luteal phase 1.7
Postmenopausal 25.8

Follicular phase 12.5

I have no idea how to read the labs you listed.  But, you should definitely call your doctor and ask them to explain it to you.  I am sorry you went through chemo and radiation at such a young age.    I was thrown into surgical menopause after surgery for ovarian cancer when I was 37.   It is tough!    I hope you are able to reverse any lasting hormonal loss you have from chemo.   Good luck to you!

I posted a few comments on this subject yesterday (if you don't see the posts here, go to my profile and find 'posts' to bring up the last few posts). You are woefully low in Estradiol, which is the lab result I understand completely. I am on my way to work, but try to go to Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet's website where there are Radio Archives and other information. After reading my posts, you'll see why, in my opinion, her work is very helpful.
