The Apollo PCOD Comprehensive Panel is crucial for people dealing with Polycystic Ovary Disorder (PCOD) or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). PCOD is a common hormonal disorder associated with the formation of small cysts in the ovaries. The PCOD blood test assesses some important hormones and metabolic factors related to the disorder. Factors contributing to the development of PCOD include insulin resistance, elevated levels of androgens, and genetic predispositions. By offering a comprehensive analysis of these factors, this PCOD test at home plays a pivotal role in facilitating an accurate diagnosis for individuals grappling with PCOD. Some symptoms associated with PCOD are listed below: Irregular or absent menstrual periods: Menstrual cycles that don't follow a regular pattern or are completely absent Excessive hair growth on the face, chest, or back (hirsutism): Unwanted and increased hair growth in areas typically seen in males, such as the face, chest, or back Acne or oily skin: Skin-related symptoms like persistent acne or excessively oily skin Weight gain or difficulty losing weight: Unexplained weight gain or challenges in losing weight, often tied to insulin resistance and metabolic disturbances associated with PCOD Thinning hair or hair loss on the scalp (male pattern baldness): Hair-related symptoms such as thinning hair or a pattern of hair loss resembling male baldness Darkening of the skin: Particularly in skin folds such as the neck, groin, and under the breasts Mood swings or depression: Emotional symptoms such as mood swings or persistent feelings of sadness, potentially linked to hormonal imbalances affecting mood-regulating pathways in PCOD The PCOD blood test requires a blood sample for testing. For this, fasting for 10-12 hours is required to obtain accurate results. A trained phlebotomist ensures a hassle-free experience by collecting the blood sample for the PCOD test at home. Using a sterile needle and syringe, the procedure is quick, relatively painless, and conducted with precision in the comfort of your own space. Once the blood sample is collected, it will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. The sample will undergo various tests including: 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP): To assess adrenal gland function Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Essential for assessing ovulation and normal menstrual cycles Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Crucial for analyzing reproductive function Prolactin: To assess prolactin, responsible for milk production and fertility Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate - (DHEAS): To assess adrenal gland function Thyroid Profile (Total T3, Total T4, TSH): To evaluate overall thyroid functioning and health Lipid Profile: To assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases Anti Mullerian Hormone (AMH): To assess ovarian reserve and indicate fertility potential Testosterone, Total: To measure hormone levels, often elevated in PCOD Homa IR: To evaluate insulin resistance and pancreatic beta-cell function In case of a positive diagnosis of PCOD, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and personalised treatment plans. Treatment options may include lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise, hormonal therapy, and management of associated symptoms. Early diagnosis and intervention can help prevent complications associated with PCOD.
