Dr. Joseph Pena answered

PCOS testing: Not sure if the family pact program covers specific testing for pcos, but evaluation may include any or all of the following: - history and physical exam - endocrine labs (thyroid, prolactin, testosterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, dheas, fsh, lh) - assessment of glucose metabolism - transvaginal ultrasound of the pelvis/ovaries reasonable to see 1'md for evaluation and see if evaluation covered.
