Why should you check liver and kidney function right after your period starts

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

If there is suspicion of polycystic ovary syndrome, it is necessary to consider whether there is insulin resistance, which can cause high blood sugar. This is a common accompanying symptom of polycystic ovary syndrome. Additionally, liver and kidney function tests are recommended because hormone treatment is likely to be required, and this can only be taken by individuals with normal liver and kidney function.
