Diagnosis of PCOS requires meeting two out of three criteria: high testosterone/androgens, ovulation dysfunction, or polycystic ovaries on ultrasound.

“So when it comes to diagnosing PCOS, right, you need to meet two out of three criteria. The first one being symptoms of high testosterone or high androgens. What are those? Facial hair, body hair, the most common acne, oily skin or male pattern hair thinning which a lot of women complain of. Number two is basically uh ovulation dysfunction. These are women with irregular periods. They get their periods um over like you know 35 days. It's not regular 28 days or they get about eight periods per year.”
