Hi, I recently had a blood test for hormones, and the results show that I have low hormone levels, specifically low androstenedione. Could you please suggest what steps or treatments could help?

Low androgens (like androstenedione) can affect energy, mood, and periods/fertility. It may be due to ovarian, adrenal, or pituitary imbalance. If you have PCOS, fatigue, or irregular periods, mention this to your doctor. Lifestyle, stress, and weight changes can also affect hormone levels.

Take a FSH and LH Test Test or Take a AMH Test (Anti Mullerian Hormone) Test

I am 37 years old. I have acne on face upper back and neck. I had acne problem for a long time. It used to appear more during the start of menstrual cycle but recently after pregnancy my baby is 6 months old now the problem has accelerated. During pregnancy one of my reports showed PCOS in right ovary. I conceived naturally and no treatment was taken. I consulted an allopathic doctor who said it is due to hormonal changes and prescribed Persol gel but I feel it is not effective. Please suggest some medicine? I want to get rid of acne.

I have been experiencing irregular periods with a gap of about two months, along with abdominal pain. I had an ultrasound, and it showed two retention cysts and a nabothian follicle in the cervix. I am attaching my report. Please suggest what I should do

My report says that multiple cysts are found in the ovaries, but I have no other symptoms of PCOS. There is no weight gain, no excess hair growth, no acne, and my periods come exactly on the 28th day. Do I still have PCOS?
