Thyroid health is crucial in managing PCOS, as thyroid dysfunction can worsen symptoms like irregular cycles and weight gain. Key tests include TSH, T3, and T4. Elevated TSH indicates hypothyroidism, while abnormal T3 and T4 levels reflect thyroid hormone imbalances that can affect metabolism and reproductive health.
Additionally we like to asses thyroid antibodies to rule out an autoimmune origin of hypothyroidism.
