Generally, either an endocrinologist of gynecologist would check for PCOS but most any doctor can run the straightforward tests.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a type of reproductive disorder within which excessive amounts of androgens (male hormones such as testosterone) are produced by the ovaries. The cause of PCOS is not completely certain, and ongoing research is being conducted to further realize the condition.

Women with PCOS usually enjoy the following symptoms:

Irregular menstrual cycles

Polycystic ovaries (enlarged ovaries containing tiny cysts)

Abnormal levels of insulin as ably as insulin resistance (cells require higher amounts to utilize the carbohydrates from the diet)

Hirsutism (excessive spine growth throughout the face and body)

Excessive immensity gain

Acne

Male-pattern hair thinning

Acanthosis nigricans (darkening of the skin around the areas of the d??colletage, arms, breasts or thighs)

Skin tags (small pieces of excess skin around the armpit or collar area)
