Question

Pcos lab panel...... Can anyone explain some results to me?

I hadn't seen a dr yet. My dhea levels were high at 441 and free testosterone was high at 7.4 all the other tests fell within normal range Ithink. 17 hydroxyprogesterone was 132 ng/dl???? Does this indicate ovulation or is it not the right test to do that? I'm guessing I might have pcos I dunn?

It sort of depends on what day you were in your cycle. I find this website helpful: http://www.fertilityplus.com/faq/hormonelevels.html it explains a lot of the hormone levels and what it means if it is elevated. The elevated dhea and free testosterone would be consistent with PCOS, but it isn't definitive. If you were near the middle of the cycle the hydroxyprogesterone could indicate you were either about to ovulate or you were in your luteal phase. Again, it depends on what day the tests were done.
