The third secret of hormones: orderly ups and downs

The third secret of hormones: orderly ups and downs

In the process of IVF, in order to obtain multiple qualified follicles, doctors will control estrogen to a level above 2000pg/ml, which has a strong stimulating effect on the ovaries. Of course, this cannot be done frequently in normal times. This is just a special approach taken under special circumstances.

However, it gives us a revelation, that is, if you feel that the development of follicles is not ideal, the follicles develop too slowly, shrink in the middle, and there are no mature follicles, etc., you can solve the problem by increasing estrogen.

Under normal circumstances, women’s estrogen roughly fluctuates between 24 and 528pg/ml, with the low point occurring during the menstrual period and the high point occurring within 50 hours before ovulation. If your hormones fluctuate like this, sometimes low when they should be low, and sometimes high when they should be high, then it means that you are normal and the estrogen in your body rises and falls in an orderly manner.

Since estrogen regulates other hormones, its ups and downs and orderly changes will perfectly adjust the endocrine system of the entire cycle. When it is low, the two hormones FSH and LH are released, and the emergence of FSH promotes the development of multiple follicles in the ovary; when it is high, it drives FSH and LH to increase violently, thereby prompting follicles to rupture, eggs to be discharged, and the corpus luteum to form.

So, during this special period when you want to have a baby, you can take the initiative to increase your estrogen levels, which is very helpful for smooth pregnancy! Just a reminder: Whether you take medicine or health products containing estrogen to increase estrogen levels, remember to take them after menstruation is over.
