    What is a PCOD Screening - Comprehensive ?

    Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD) is a common condition among women of reproductive age, primarily caused by hormonal and genetic factors. It typically leads to irregular periods, higher levels of androgens, and multiple small cysts in the ovaries, resulting from the release of underdeveloped eggs. The disorder may also increase the chances of developing hypertension and diabetes. Early identification can be vital in managing symptoms and curbing further health issues.

    The PCOD Comprehensive Checkup Package is tailored to assess hormonal health, ovarian function, and metabolic status. By evaluating key hormones, blood markers, C-reactive protein, HbA1c, and random blood sugar, this package delivers essential health insights and identifies the underlying factors contributing to PCOD symptoms.

    PCOD Screening - Comprehensive Parameters

    C-Reactive Protein (CRP)

    The C-Reactive Protein (CRP) test measures the level of CRP, a protein made by the liver that increases when there's inflammation in the body. It is a non-specific marker of inflammation and can be elevated in various conditions like infections, autoimmune diseases, and heart disease.

    Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    The Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) test measures the average blood sugar level over the past two to three months. It helps in diagnosing and monitoring diabetes by checking how well blood sugar levels are being managed over a longer period.

    • Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    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

    Anti Mullerian Hormone (AMH)

    The Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) test measures a hormone produced by ovarian follicles, reflecting ovarian reserve. Typically used in reproductive medicine, it helps assess a woman's fertility potential. AMH levels indicate the quantity of eggs in the ovaries, aiding in predicting ovarian response to fertility treatments. Low levels may suggest diminished ovarian reserve, while high levels may indicate conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome.

    Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS)

    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.

    Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG)

    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.
