Hi Ladies! I hope I'm posting on the right board Chat Icon

My GYN is sending me for CD3 bw due to suspected PCOS. The requisition came and she checked off Progesterone, Prolactin, FSH, LH, TSH, HCG (fairly certain this one isn't needed!) She did not order Testosterone or Estradiol. Isn't elevated Testosterone a hallmark of PCOS? Am I missing something?

TIA!

to me it looks like everything but your missing amh levels to check your egg reserve level. from what I know elevated testosterone could be an indicator, which is why some ladies grow facial hair.

When I started seeing my RE, they didn't care about my testosterone levels which surprised me too. With Pcos and tTC, it's more important how the eggs are, is what I've come to learn.
