What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

Another Cause Is Present or Unexcluded

The features resemble PCOS, but a cause that must be addressed first is present. PCOS is a diagnosis of exclusion.

  • Criteria met: 2 of 3 criteria

Recommended next steps

For physician consideration. Urgent review always comes first.

  1. 1Assess thyroid function before assigning PCOS.

Differentials, pitfalls and contradicting signals

  • The features meet the criteria, but another cause is present or unexcluded; PCOS is a diagnosis of exclusion.

Missing information

  • Total testosterone with SHBG (high-quality assay).
Evidence and rule trace · 4 rules

PC-02Criterion: irregular cycles

Inputs: 6 cycles a year

PC-03Criterion: hyperandrogenism

Inputs: hirsutism mFG 6

Clinical or biochemical hyperandrogenism.

PC-08Thyroid dysfunction

Inputs: TSH 9.2 mIU/L
