What is HIRSUTISM EVALUATION PANEL?

The Hirsutism Evaluation Panel is a group of blood tests designed to investigate the cause of hirsutism, which is excessive hair growth in women in areas where men typically grow hair. It helps identify underlying hormonal imbalances that contribute to this condition.

Why is this test important?

This panel measures various hormones, such as testosterone, DHEA-S, and prolactin, to pinpoint underlying conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), adrenal gland disorders, or other hormonal issues. It's crucial for accurate diagnosis and guiding appropriate treatment.

How to Prepare

Fasting may be required for some components of the panel. Please follow specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider regarding food, drink, and medication before the test.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fast before my blood test?
It depends on the test. Tests like lipid profile and fasting blood sugar require 10-12 hours of fasting. Tests like CBC, vitamin D, and thyroid do not require fasting. Each test page on our website clearly states the fasting requirements.
