What is the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Blood Test Clinic Visit. A PCOS test checks for an excess of hormones that affects 5 to 10% of women of childbearing age. High amounts of androgen, periods that don’t come on time, and small cysts on one or both ovaries are all signs of this condition.
Why Get the PCOS Profile?
Symptoms and signs often start to show up during puberty. Of course, it can happen later, like when someone gains a lot of weight. These signs may show up:
- Not ovulating regularly
- Hormonal imbalance
- Putting on weight at an abnormal rate
- Loss of hair
5 Biomarkers:
- Luteinising Hormone: Helps your reproductive system.
- Testosterone: Factor for missed periods, hair growth on your face or chest, or difficulty getting pregnant.
- FSH: Checks for ovarian disease.
- Free androgen index: Shows if you have abnormal levels
- Sex Hormone Binding Globulin: Shows testosterone deficiency or excess.

PCOS Scientific Info/Data from Our Equipment and Material Suppliers
Technology Method:
Fluorescence quantitative immunoassay
Detection Bounds:
- FSH: 1 mIU/mL.
- SHGB: 10 nmol/L.
- Testosterone: 0.1 ng/mL.
- Luteinising hormone: 1 mIU/mL
- Free Androgen Index: N/A (calculated)
Accuracy and Precision:
The relative standard deviation from the target value is ≤ 15%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 15%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 15%.
Measuring Ranges:
- FSH: 1~100 mIU/mL
- SHGB: 10~1000 nmol/L
- Testosterone: 0.1~16.0 ng/mL
- Luteinising hormone: 1~100 mIU/mL
- Free Androgen Index: N/A (calculated)
Validation-Active Information:
- EQA: N/A
- Inter-laboratory validations
- Periodic according to the validation schedule
- Event-triggered- QC/Calibration/New materials/Batch
Accuracy and Precision:
The accuracy of these PCOS exams is based on the relative deviation, which is the average deviation from the actual result value.
The precision relies on the within-assay coefficient of variations and the between-assay coefficient. The within-assay coefficient of variations is the variance of the result value if the same test is analysed again. The between-assay coefficient is the variance of the result value if the same sample is reprocessed from the beginning again.
Range results:
FSH:
- Female:5~20 mIU/mL
- Follicular phase: 4.46~12.43 mIU/mL

- Luteal phase: 1.95~8.04 mIU/mL
- Menopause: 20.00~98.62 mIU/mL
- Males: 1.50~12.40 mIU/mL.
SHGB:
- Nonpregnant females: 30~200 nmol/L
- Pregnant females: 200~500 nmol/L
- Males: 20~70 nmol/L.
Testosterone:
- Females: 0.10~0.75 ng/mL
- Males: 1.75~7.81 ng/mL
Luteinising:
- Female:
- Follicular phase: 2.95~13.65 mIU/mL
- Ovulatory phase: 13.65~95.75 mIU/mL
