When you had this test didn't you ask your dr. what the report meant? The dr. should have offered that info since thats why you were there.

If your FSH test was above 10-12 then you are haviing ovary failure.It depends on when your test was taken during your cycle.The levels have been known to change from week to week or monthly.So it is probably safe to say you have good news.

Yes.  By the time your FSH hits 91 you can be pretty well-assured you will not get pregnant.  It's always best to have 2 tests to verify that the high numbers were not just a temporary spike.  If 2 come back elevated, you can be definite that you are menopausal and won't get pregnant.
