Top 3 Diagnostic Tests for PCOS

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects hormones, metabolism, and reproductive health. Diagnosing it correctly is key to managing symptoms and restoring balance.

✨ Testosterone Levels

High testosterone can cause acne, hair growth, or irregular periods. Blood tests help determine if this key androgen is above normal.

➤ This is one of the most common hormonal indicators in PCOS.

✨ Insulin & Glucose Markers

Insulin resistance is at the core of PCOS for many. Testing fasting glucose and insulin can reveal how well your body processes sugar.

➤ Early awareness helps prevent long-term metabolic issues.

✨ Ovulatory Hormones (LH, FSH, Estrogen, Progesterone)

An imbalance here may explain missed periods, anovulation, or fertility struggles. Testing can pinpoint cycle disruptions.

➤ Know your cycle better with lab-confirmed hormone panels.

🌿 The right lab work is the first step toward taking charge of your PCOS journey. Ask your provider about these tests to get a clearer picture of your health.
