PCOS TESTING
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition that affects approximately 1 in 5 women.​
​
PCOS is a hormonal condition. Some of the hormones that are affected by PCOS include insulin and androgen (testosterone). ​Women with PCOS often have high levels of insulin that does not work properly or higher levels of androgen or both. Normally women make small amounts of androgen but in women with PCOS, they make slightly more androgen.
​
PCOS diagnosis usually involves a combination of blood tests, symptom identification, and an ultrasound test.
​
Although very few women have the same symptoms, common symptoms include:​
-
Irregular or absent menstrual periods
-
Weight gain
-
Acne
-
Excess facial or body hair
-
Thinning scalp hair
-
Mood changes- anxiety and depression
