Patient's question:
When do you need to have blood tests for 6 items and an ultrasound scan if you suspect polycystic ovary syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the typical clinical manifestations of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) include oligomenorrhea, infertility, hirsutism, and obesity, with an infertility rate of approximately 75%, primarily primary infertility. Laparoscopic ovarian drilling is the most effective treatment for it. Regarding the precautions for measuring sex hormones, one is the time of blood collection. The levels of sex hormones vary with the menstrual cycle. If FSH, LH, prolactin, estrogen, and androgen need to be measured, blood is usually taken during the early follicular phase, which is on days 2-4 of the menstrual period.
