The Apollo PCOD Basic Panel is as a crucial diagnostic tool curated to diagnose Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD), its causes and its associated health problems. PCOD stems from imbalances in hormones, particularly elevated androgens, disrupting the menstrual cycle and leading to cysts in the ovaries. This PCOD panel test analyses key hormonal markers, aiding in the identification of the hormonal disorder. PCOD is influenced by factors such as insulin resistance, genetic predisposition, and hormonal irregularities. Some common symptoms of PCOD include: Irregular menstrual cycles: Women with PCOD may experience infrequent or absent periods, disrupting the typical monthly cycle. This irregularity is often a result of hormonal imbalances, specifically elevated androgens, impacting the normal ovulation process. Excessive hair growth: Increased facial or body hair, a condition known as hirsutism, may be observed in individuals with PCOD. This occurs due to elevated levels of androgens, such as testosterone, which stimulate the growth of coarse and dark hair in areas more typical of male hair patterns. Acne: PCOD can cause persistent acne or oily skin. Hormonal fluctuations, particularly increased androgens, contribute to overactive sebaceous glands, leading to the development of acne and excessively oily skin. Weight gain: Many women with PCOS find it challenging to manage their weight due to metabolic disturbances associated with insulin resistance. The body may struggle to process insulin efficiently, leading to increased fat storage and difficulties in weight management. Hair loss: Thinning hair or hair loss on the scalp, known as male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia, may be a result of PCOD. Hormonal imbalances, specifically elevated androgens, can affect hair follicles, leading to hair thinning or loss. Mood swings: Hormonal imbalances associated with PCOD can lead to emotional changes and mood swings. Fluctuations in oestrogen and progesterone levels may impact neurotransmitters in the brain, influencing mood regulation and contributing to mood swings, irritability, or feelings of anxiety or depression. The Apollo PCOD profile blood test requires a blood sample for analysis. A qualified healthcare professional will collect a small amount of blood from a vein in your arm using a sterile needle. The procedure is quick and relatively painless. The PCOD panel test consists of the following tests: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Serum: This test measures the levels of TSH in the blood to evaluate thyroid function. Luteinizing Hormone (LH): LH levels are assessed to determine the hormonal imbalances often seen in PCOD. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): FSH levels are measured to evaluate the functioning of the ovaries. Insulin (Fasting): This test determines insulin levels as insulin resistance is a common characteristic of PCOD. Prolactin: Prolactin levels are evaluated to rule out other hormonal disorders that may mimic PCOD symptoms. Glucose, Fasting: Fasting glucose levels are measured to assess the risk of developing diabetes, which is higher in women with PCOD. Testosterone, Total: Total testosterone levels are analysed to identify any hormonal imbalances related to PCOD. In case of a positive diagnosis, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and personalised treatment options. Treatment for PCOD typically focuses on managing symptoms, reducing the risk of complications, and improving fertility if desired. Lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise, along with medication, may be recommended to regulate menstrual cycles, reduce excessive hair growth, and manage insulin resistance.
