Hi,

I think that you will need to do a blood sugar test for fasting blood sugar and post prandial blood sugar and a HB1AC test. Also, an ultrasound examination of lower abdomen will be required to rule out polycystic ovarian disease. Start taking anti-fungal tablets itraconazole 200mg for 4 weeks, start dietary restriction. If PCOS is diagnosed you need to start metformin and combined oral contraceptive pills for 3 months.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
