POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy7 months agoA. A whole health checkup is a great way to assess your overall well-being and detect any underlying health issues early. Since you have PCOS, occasional dizziness, and past pregnancy-related concerns, a comprehensive health checkup should cover:
Recommended Tests for You: 1. General Health Screening
✅ Complete Blood Count (CBC) – Checks for infections, anemia, etc.
✅ Blood Sugar (Fasting & HbA1c) – To detect diabetes or prediabetes.
✅ Lipid Profile – Checks cholesterol levels for heart health.
✅ Liver Function Test (LFT) – Assesses liver health.
✅ Kidney Function Test (KFT) – Checks kidney health.
✅ Thyroid Profile (T3, T4, TSH) – Since PCOS can affect thyroid function.
2. PCOS & Hormonal Checkup
✅ Prolactin Level – Since yours was high (36) and affects fertility.
✅ Testosterone & DHEA-S – To check for hormonal imbalance in PCOS.
✅ AMH Test – To assess ovarian reserve (if planning pregnancy).
✅ Insulin Resistance Test – PCOS can increase insulin resistance.
✅ Vitamin D & B12 – Deficiencies can cause fatigue, weakness, and dizziness.
3. Gynecological & Breast Health
✅ Pelvic Ultrasound – To check ovarian cysts, fibroids, and uterus health.
✅ Pap Smear – If you haven’t done it recently, to screen for cervical cancer.
✅ Breast Ultrasound/Mammography – Since you have a fibroid in your breast.
4. Heart & Bone Health
✅ Electrocardiogram (ECG) – If you experience palpitations.
✅ Bone Density Test (DEXA Scan) – PCOS and pregnancy can impact bone health.
Where to Get It Done? You can book a full-body health checkup package at labs like Apollo, Thyrocare, SRL, Dr. Lal PathLabs, or a hospital near you. Home sample collection is available for many tests.
