Understanding Your Results
LH/FSH ratio > 2:1
May be associated with PCOD/PCOS and abnormal GnRH signalling.
Elevated total testosterone or DHEAS
Suggests hyperandrogenism; further adrenal or ovarian evaluation may be required.
Elevated AMH
Supports polycystic ovarian morphology and increased ovarian reserve.
HOMA-IR > 1.9
Suggests insulin resistance, which is frequently seen in PCOD/PCOS.
Abnormal TSH or FT4
Indicates thyroid dysfunction that should be treated before diagnosing PCOS.
If you have irregular cycles, infertility, hirsutism, acne, weight gain, or abnormal reports, consult a gynaecologist or endocrinologist. This test is not a self-diagnostic tool.
Limitations
- ⚠This test does not independently diagnose PCOD; ultrasound and clinical assessment are essential.
- ⚠Reference intervals vary with age, assay, and laboratory.
- ⚠HOMA-IR is an indirect marker; hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp is the gold standard for insulin sensitivity.
- ⚠Hormone values in pregnancy are not interpretable using non-pregnant references.
Risks & Considerations
- ●Bruising or soreness at the puncture site
- ●Dizziness or lightheadedness
- ●Small haematoma
- ●Very low risk of infection
Interfering Factors
- ●Hormonal contraceptives and anti-androgen medications
- ●Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- ●Biotin supplements
- ●Acute stress or infection
- ●Menstrual phase at the time of sampling
- ●Late sample collection after waking
