Description
Polycystic ovary syndrome affects hormones and metabolism together, which is why checking one without the other rarely gives the full story. This panel brings both sides into a single test, covering the core female sex hormones, free androgen index, thyroid and the blood sugar and cholesterol markers commonly affected in PCOS. Ideal if you are investigating symptoms such as irregular cycles, unwanted hair growth, acne or difficulty losing weight, or you are already managing PCOS and want to track how you are responding.
What it measures: Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinising Hormone (LH), Oestradiol, Prolactin, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), Testosterone, Progesterone, Free Androgen Index (FAI), Advanced Thyroid panel, AMH, HbA1c, Lipid Profile, Glucose
Please note: this panel supports investigation and monitoring. A diagnosis of PCOS cannot be made on blood results alone and should always be made by a qualified clinician.
Collection method Venous: sample taken by a trained healthcare professional. This is the gold standard as it improves accuracy, reduces contamination risk or test failure and is best for more detailed panels that need a larger sample.
