How To Read Your Laboratory Results

Your results will list your values alongside standard reference ranges. If a result falls outside the range, it is noted for review. Important: A single out-of-range value does not automatically indicate a medical problem. Results must be assessed in conjunction with your medical history and clinical examination.

Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within 5 days. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.

Most Searched Online Questions About PCOS

What is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)?
PCOS is a common hormonal condition affecting women of reproductive age, characterized by irregular periods, excess androgens (male hormones), and sometimes cysts on the ovaries.
What are the common symptoms of PCOS?
Symptoms can include skipped or absent menstrual cycles, heavy bleeding, hair growth on the face/body, severe acne, weight gain, and thinning hair on the scalp.
How is PCOS diagnosed?
Diagnosis typically involves a combination of assessing medical history/symptoms, conducting a physical exam, taking blood tests to check hormone and glucose levels, and performing a pelvic ultrasound.
Why test for insulin resistance in PCOS?
Up to 70% of women with PCOS have insulin resistance, meaning their cells can’t use insulin properly. This drives up both insulin and androgen levels, worsening symptoms and increasing diabetes risk.
Can PCOS affect fertility?
Yes. Because PCOS disrupts normal ovulation (the release of an egg), it is one of the most common, yet treatable, causes of female infertility.
