| Research Abstract |
We studied appropriate method to estimate hormonal findings for the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Timing of measurement of serum LH is later than 10 days from withdrawal bleeding. LH/FSH rate is better than LH level in obese PCOS patients. We determined the cut of values of LH, LH/FSH ratio and testosteron (T) for the diagnosis of PCOS. T assay has become necessary for the diagnosis of PCOS also in Japan due to recent advance of T. Results of this study would be contribute for better diagnosis of Japanese PCOS patients.
