Luteal out of phase event (LOOP) - ANSExplains why some perimenopausal women have
elevated estrogen level sometimes...In the early menopause transition, elevated FSH levels are
adequate to recruit a second follicle which results in a follicular phase-like rise in estradiol
secretion superimposed on the mid-to-late luteal phase of the ongoing ovulatory cycle.

Obese women and estradiol levels during menopause - ANSObese women are more likely to
have anovulatory cycles with high estradiol levels. They are also more likely to have lower
premenopause yet higher postmenopause estradiol levels compared with women of normal
weight. (why they are at higher risk of endometrial cancer)
