Yes, there is a direct relationship between stress and PCOS. If not managed timely it can lead to depression and other mental illnesses.

What should be avoided in PCOD?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, I am 24 years old. I did a hormone test: DHEA is 4.7 microgram/ml, testosterone 56.1 ng/ml, and delta 4 is 4.59 ng/ml. Are these levels normal and what do they mean? By the way, I usually have regular periods except for last month and this month.

My sister, 35 years old, was advised a hormone test due to severe acne. I have attached the results. Is the blood report normal? Does elevated DHEAS require any treatment?
