Can low LH cause hair loss?

Question

IAllmybloods are coming back normal apart from my LH which is 1.3u/L (1.8-11.8) being normal. Could this cause hair loss. Just to add i had this same test done back in november and it was 2.2u/L classed as normal. Currently on Cerelle birth control wondering if this can change levels?

You’ll want to review all your blood tests with your doctor. Birth control pills keep LH and FSH low so this is an expected result for someone on birth control pills. I don’t order LH in most women who use birth control pills as this test is not helpful in this situation. You will want to see a hair loss specialist for a full review of your story and to have a proper examination
