Hormone Test for PCOS
& Irregular Periods
8 Tests · Only ₹3,799
⚠️ PCOS affects approximately 1 in 5 Indian women. Irregular periods, weight gain, acne and hair changes are not just cosmetic — they are signs of insulin resistance and hormonal imbalance that worsen over time without diagnosis.
The complete PCOS hormonal picture — in one home visit. AMH (ovarian activity), FSH, LH (pituitary signalling), Insulin Fasting (insulin resistance — the root cause), Prolactin, Estradiol, CBC and Thyroid. Everything your gynaecologist needs to confirm or rule out PCOS.
All 8 Tests — Complete Breakdown
Tests marked ✦ PCOS Key are the hormonal signals specific to PCOS diagnosis. AMH carries the ✦ CLIA Method badge — processed by Chemiluminescent Immunoassay for highest accuracy. Insulin Fasting has the ✦ Insulin Resistance badge — measuring the metabolic root cause.
Anti-Müllerian Hormone CLIA (AMH)✦ CLIA Method
AMH is produced by small antral follicles and directly reflects ovarian reserve. In PCOS, AMH is typically elevated (above 3.5 ng/mL), making it both a diagnostic marker and a measure of response to ovarian stimulation. Processed by CLIA — the same gold-standard method used by leading fertility clinics. Can be tested on any day of the cycle.
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
FSH stimulates follicle development in the ovaries. In PCOS, FSH is usually low-normal while LH is elevated — creating the characteristic LH:FSH ratio above 2:1 that is a diagnostic hallmark. Day 2–3 testing gives the most clinically useful baseline for cycle assessment.
Luteinising Hormone (LH)✦ PCOS Key
An elevated LH:FSH ratio (above 2:1) is one of the most specific hormonal markers for PCOS. Chronically elevated LH signals the pituitary is over-stimulating the ovaries, causing excess androgen production, anovulation and the irregular periods characteristic of PCOS.
Prolactin✦ PCOS Key
Elevated prolactin (hyperprolactinaemia) is a common and treatable cause of irregular periods and anovulation that can mimic PCOS. Before confirming PCOS, prolactin must be checked to rule out a pituitary adenoma or medication-induced hyperprolactinaemia — both highly manageable once identified.
Estradiol (E2)
Baseline Day 2–3 Estradiol confirms the pituitary-ovarian axis is functioning and helps interpret FSH and LH values accurately. In PCOS, oestrogen patterns may be altered. E2 is essential for assessing cycle regularity and follicle quality alongside other pituitary hormones.
Insulin Fasting✦ Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance is present in 50–80% of women with PCOS and is the primary driver of elevated androgens, irregular cycles and weight gain in PCOS. Fasting insulin — combined with Glucose FBS — calculates the HOMA-IR score used by doctors to diagnose and monitor insulin resistance. Elevated fasting insulin can be present years before overt diabetes develops.
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
CBC provides a full count of red blood cells, white blood cells, haemoglobin and platelets. In women with PCOS and heavy or prolonged periods, CBC screens for iron-deficiency anaemia — a common but often missed consequence of irregular heavy bleeding.
Thyroid Profile-I (T3, T4, TSH)✦ PCOS Key
Hypothyroidism is the single most common reversible hormonal cause of irregular periods and infertility in Indian women — and can closely mimic PCOS symptoms. Even subclinical hypothyroidism (elevated TSH with normal T3/T4) causes anovulation and cycle disruption. Thyroid testing is mandatory before any PCOS diagnosis is confirmed.

Why NABL Accreditation Matters for PCOS Hormone Tests
PCOS hormone results — particularly AMH, LH, FSH and Insulin — directly guide major treatment decisions. Inaccurate results from non-accredited labs can lead to missed diagnosis or inappropriate treatment.

What Our Patients Say
"My Insulin Fasting was 32 — very high — even though my blood sugar was normal. My gynaecologist confirmed insulin-resistant PCOS and started me on inositol and a low-carb diet. My periods regularised within 3 months. Nobody near Nizampet offered this test with AMH together. Lotus Diagnostics gave me the complete picture."
"LH:FSH ratio was 3.4 — clearly elevated. AMH was 5.8 (high, typical PCOS). My gynaecologist at Fernandez confirmed PCOS immediately. The NABL report was accepted directly. The home collection near KPHB at 8 AM was discreet and professional. Report came by 5 PM. Excellent service."
"TSH came back at 5.2 — subclinical hypothyroidism. My doctor said this was causing my irregular periods, not PCOS. Started thyroxine and cycles normalised. The Lotus Diagnostics PCOS panel near Miyapur included thyroid, which most other labs charge separately. The blood draw was at home, report was quick and completely private."

Hormone Test for PCOS & Irregular Periods in Nizampet, Hyderabad — Complete Guide
PCOS — The Most Common Hormonal Condition in Young Indian Women
PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) affects approximately 1 in 5 Indian women of reproductive age. It is the leading cause of irregular periods and infertility — yet it is frequently underdiagnosed because its symptoms (acne, weight gain, irregular periods) are often dismissed. The underlying driver in most cases is insulin resistance, which elevates testosterone, disrupts ovulation and creates the hormonal cascade of PCOS.
This 8-test PCOS profile at Lotus Diagnostics Nizampet costs ₹3,799 — with free confidential home collection and NABL-accredited reports within 9 hours.
