Can low LH cause hair loss?

July 21, 2022
Asked By:Cheerful71115 in England, United Kingdom

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?
