Test Details:
The Hirsutism Panel test is a blood test that measures the levels of various hormones in the body that can contribute to excessive hair growth in women, known as hirsutism. This panel typically includes the following hormone tests:
- Testosterone: This male sex hormone is also present in women, and high levels can contribute to excessive hair growth.
- DHEA-S: Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, and elevated levels can lead to hirsutism.
- LH (luteinizing hormone): This hormone is responsible for stimulating the production of testosterone, and imbalances can contribute to hirsutism.
- FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone): This hormone regulates the menstrual cycle and stimulates the production of estrogen. Imbalances can also contribute to hirsutism.
- Prolactin: Elevated levels of this hormone can interfere with the normal production of estrogen and progesterone, leading to hirsutism.
- Cortisol: Excessive levels of cortisol, often due to conditions like Cushing’s syndrome, can contribute to hirsutism.
The Hirsutism Panel test helps identify the underlying hormonal imbalances that may be causing excessive hair growth in women. It can assist in diagnosing conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), adrenal disorders, and other hormonal disorders. Treatment options can then be tailored based on the specific hormone imbalances identified in the test results.
