At this time, there’s no singular test to determine whether someone has PCOS, so once other conditions are ruled out by a doctor, PCOS may be diagnosed if there are multiple indicators that there are high levels of androgens present, irregular menstrual cycles, and/or cysts present on one or both ovaries. Every body is unique, so treatment plans are often most effective when customized with one’s health care team and when regular check-ins are an option to evaluate progress and determine if a different course of treatment is preferred.
