Getting your PCOS diagnosed and managed often requires going beyond basic health checks. A combination of various laboratory tests can help investigate the conditions associated with PCOS and monitor your treatment response.

Here are some key tests you might consider:

1. **LH and FSH** - These are your reproductive hormones. Their levels can often indicate the presence of PCOS.
2. **DHEA and Testosterone** - These androgen hormones, when elevated, may point to PCOS.
3. **Insulin Glucose Challenge** - This test helps evaluate how your body is handling glucose, useful in identifying insulin resistance often found in PCOS.
4. **HbA1C** - This test can show your average blood sugar control for several months, which is essential to assess if you have prediabetes or diabetes.
5. **ESR and CRP** - These are inflammatory markers; their levels can illuminate the presence of an underlying systemic inflammation.
6. **17 OH Progesterone** - An elevated level of this hormone can imply that PCOS is actually the wrong diagnosis. PCOS is oftentimes over diagnosed and there are other conditions that present similarly! Getting properly assessed is crucial for obtaining proper treatment. may suggest the presence of PCOS.

Always remember to discuss these tests with your healthcare provider to understand their significance to your health situation.
