99 - Take Control of Your PCOS Labs with Dr. Alan Hopkins - a podcast by Amy Medling

I cannot overemphasize the importance of thorough lab work. The more information you have, the better decisions you will make, the better questions you will ask, the better care you can demand. On today’s podcast, Dr. Alan Hopkins discusses labs highly recommended for women with PCOS that you doctor may not have mentioned and explains to gravity of the ones they probably have already recommended. Listen in (or read the transcript) as we discuss:

the basic PCOS labs
labs to request if you take metformin
importance of testing for the MTHFR genetic mutation, vitamin D, inflammation markers, and food sensitivity testing
tests to request for thyroid or if planning a pregnancy
