PCOD treatment - next steps
Hello, PCOD has been detected, which requires a proper treatment. The doctor didnt look at the ultrasound photos(she had sent me to another clinic to do it), also did not examine me, just wrote a prescription without explaining anything about the drug. I am leading a very healthy lifestyle but was told to lose weight (1,63m, 53kg) I asked for blood test, she said not necessary. I am pretty sure that a blood test is required to check the hormonal situation, right? What will be the next step?
Thx
