Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Test Package for Women

What is PCOS?

PCOS is an abbreviation for the polycystic ovarian syndrome (also known as Stein-Leventhal syndrome), which affects not only the ovaries but the entire body. Aside from genetic susceptibility, lifestyle (obesity, stress, sedentary lifestyle) plays an essential role in developing metabolic diseases affecting the female hormone system. It is now fairly frequent, affecting approximately 5-7% of women.

When Should The PCOS Laboratory Package Be Performed?

If PCOS is suspected, an endocrinologist should be consulted, although gynecological and internal medical testing is also required for diagnosis. PCOS can be considered if testing reveals the presence of at least two of the three main symptoms listed below:

An irregular menstrual cycle or an ovulation issue
Male hormone excess
Ultrasound reveals small cysts beneath the ovarian cortex.

What Tests Are Included In The PCOS Package?

Complete Blood Count
CBC is basically a simple blood test, this blood test is performed to observe the health of a human body.
Lipid Profile
A lipid profile test measures the content of cholesterol and fats (triglyceride) in your blood, which gives the doctor a quick overview of what is happening in the blood and keeps them aware of any dangerous illness.
Blood Sugar (Fasting)
The amount of glucose or sugar circulating in a person’s blood is measured.
TSH
to determine whether your thyroid is overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism)
LH
to discover if a man or woman has difficulties with their reproductive system.
FSH
to assess fertility, or to see if a woman is going through menopause.
Prolactin
to find out whether you have a prolactinoma (a type of tumor of the pituitary gland).
Testosterone
to determine the total amount of testosterone in the body, which is one of the elements that control sexual desire.
Estrogen (Estradiol) (E2)

Hormone Testing

Total and free testosterone are androgenic hormones generated by women’s ovaries and adrenal glands. A growth in free testosterone levels may occur with normal total testosterone levels. As its value rises, masculine characteristics emerge (thick body hair, masculine baldness), which may also be caused by PCOS.

Prolactin: The hormone prolactin aids in initiating and maintaining milk secretion after childbirth.
Oestradiol: It is an estrogen hormone that is produced by the developing follicle. The measurement of oestradiol levels is primarily used to evaluate ovarian function.
Androstenedione: This is an androgenic hormone generated by women’s ovaries and adrenal cortex. Its concentration changes throughout the menstrual cycle, aiding in monitoring ovarian function.
DHEA-S: an androgenic hormone that can be transformed into a female sex hormone, estrogen, in women.
Progesterone: It is vital in the creation and maintenance of pregnancy, but it is also involved in regulating the female menstrual cycle.
AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone): This is produced by eggs still maturing, and its level predicts the length of the fertile phase. Its concentration progressively declines over time.
FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone, follicle maturation hormone): FSH causes follicles in the ovaries to grow and develop.
LH (luteinizing hormone, corpus luteum stimulating hormone): LH is the hormone that causes ovulation (follicular rupture). It allows the follicle produced by FSH to grow further; when LH levels rise, ovulation occurs.

Thyroid Function

TSH: TSH is a thyroid-stimulating hormone produced in the pituitary gland and stimulates thyroid hormone production.

Metabolism

3-point oral glucose tolerance test with insulin measurement: In addition to drinking a 75g glucose solution, an oral glucose tolerance test is performed, during which the insulin level, degree of secretion, and change are all measured.
Vitamin D: Vitamin D, like hormones, aids in the growth and maturity of eggs.
