Can't say: Early in the cycle the fsh should be higher than the lh - in this case it is not. Further, a hallmark of pcos is anovulation which should result in persistently low Progesterone levels - usually less that 4.0. Here the Progesterone level is elevated and would be consistent with ovulation, but that is a non-sequitur to the fsh/lh levels noted.

Need more tests ...: Lh higher than fsh on day 2 suggests pcos but is not part of the official diagnosis, which is 2 out of 3 of 1) irregular periods / no periods 2) hyperandrogenism - too much male-type hormones on blood tests or symptoms like acne, oily skin, or unwanted hair growth or 3) ultrasound showing an enlarged ovary and / or high antral follicle counts. Your lab work shows ovulation, can't diagnose pcos yet.
