Hello,
I decided to get my hormone levels tested after my aunt told me her story about her frequency being related to low estrogen levels. She got a new birth control with a higher dose of estrogen and her frequency was amazingly better.
I'm only 21 but I thought it was worth a shot. My estrogen level result turned out to be "<30". I got tested a few days before my period started. I don't really know if this is considered "low" or not.... or whether it is normal. My doctor wasn't a big help because she said it just depends where you are in your cycle.
If anyone has any feedback, that would be wonderful. I sometimes think my frequency problem is all related to hormones and my cycle because I flare up so bad mid-cycle (like ovulation) and a week before my period.
