    What is a PCOD Screening ?

    Polycystic ovary disease/polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOD/PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that can lead to a variety of symptoms, including irregular menstrual periods, excessive hair growth, acne, and infertility. 1,2 Individuals with PCOD may have an increased risk of developing other health conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure. This marks the importance of early detection. Our PCOS Checkup involves measuring key hormones that play an essential role in regulating menstrual cycles, ovulation, weight, and metabolism. The screening includes measuring levels of hormones such as luteinising hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), insulin, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and prolactin along with blood parameters like a complete blood count and glucose.

    If you reside in Bangalore and are experiencing symptoms of PCOD, consider scheduling a screening today. The PCOD test in Bangalore can provide valuable insights into your health and identify the underlying causes of PCOD-related symptoms.

    PCOD Screening Parameters

    Blood Sugar

    This test measures the amount of glucose, or sugar, in the blood. It's typically used to screen for, diagnose, or monitor diabetes. It can be done in a fasting state, randomly or post-meal (postprandial).

    Insulin - Random

    This test measures the level of insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar, at any given time (randomly). It can help diagnose diabetes and insulin resistance.

    Thyroid Function Test (TFT)

    The Thyroid Function Test (TFT) comprises a set of blood assessments designed to evaluate the thyroid gland's performance. These tests measure thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), total T4, and total T3 levels, aiding in the detection of hyperthyroidism (overactivity) or hypothyroidism (underactivity) in the thyroid.

    • Total T3

    • Total T4

    • TSH

    Prolactin

    This test measures the level of prolactin, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a crucial role in reproduction. High or low levels can indicate pituitary disorders or diseases.

    Testosterone - Total

    This test measures the total level of testosterone in the body. Testosterone is a hormone that influences sexual features and development. It is important in both men and women, but levels are usually higher in men.

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR

    This is a combination of the Complete Blood Count (CBC), which measures various components of the blood, along with the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). The ESR is a type of blood test that measures how quickly erythrocytes (red blood cells) settle at the bottom of a test tube containing a blood sample. A faster than normal rate may indicate a systemic disease, such as inflammation, infection, or cancer.

    Why Take the PCOD Screening?

    Consider undergoing a PCOD Blood test if you experience symptoms of PCOD. The most common signs and symptoms include:

    • Acne: Persistent acne on the back, chest, and face, which may be difficult to treat and can continue beyond teenage years.

    • Irregular Periods : Involves missing periods, not having periods at all, or experiencing heavy bleeding during periods.

    • Abnormal Hair Growth : Excess facial hair or significant hair growth on your arms, chest, and abdomen (hirsutism).

    • Obesity : Excess weight and trouble maintaining a healthy weight.

    • Hair Thinning : Hair loss or balding on the head.

    • Skin Tags : Small skin flaps that are commonly present in the armpits or on the neck.

    • Infertility : Irregular or infrequent ovulation can result in difficulty conceiving.

    Women with PCOD are at an increased risk of developing serious health problems, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular issues, and uterine cancer. Additionally, PCOD often leads to fertility challenges. 1 Thus, a PCOS test can help identify the condition early, allowing for timely management and reducing the risk of these associated health issues.
