Overview
The PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) Profile is a set of tests designed to diagnose and monitor PCOS, a hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age. It typically includes assessments for hormone levels, such as testosterone, LH/FSH ratio, DHEA-S, and insulin resistance, which can help identify irregularities common in PCOS.
The profile may also include tests for blood sugar levels and cholesterol, as women with PCOS are at higher risk for metabolic issues. Early detection and management through lifestyle changes, medications, or hormone therapy can help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce symptoms, and improve fertility outcomes.
