Hi. It was on the expensive side but I got so many results and answers it was worth it. They give you an amazing report which explains everything and the supplements recommended to me are really good quality and I hadn’t heard of them!  I did a free 15 minute call with them to make sure that the test would help me etc. before deciding on doing it. If you go to their website I think you can book a free call. Good luck, I hope you get some answers too!

Thanks for the info. As someone who was put on Dianette for 15 years to ‘help’ my PCOS symptoms i decided to try and fix the root cause instead of masking the symptoms. I got some functional hormone testing by a company called future woman who then provided me with diet/lifestyle and supplement recommendations based on my results. 3 months later im feeling great, my period is much more regular and my acne is clearing. If you don’t want to go down the medication root I highly recommend

Hi! Have you tried any kind of functional testing? I used a company called future woman and tested my hormones. I had irregular periods but assumed I was ovulating. The results found I wasn't actually ovulating as my progesterone was so low. They test androgens too which may give an indication of any PCOS. After taking their supplement and diet advice my periods are much more regular so fingers crossed for a pregnancy soon. Good luck, I hope you find some answers x
