Metabolic & Inflammation Test

Spot the hidden drivers behind your PCOS symptoms.
This at-home blood test gives you insight into your body’s metabolic and inflammatory health. They are two of the most common, yet under-tested, contributors to PCOS symptoms like weight gain, fatigue, acne, and irregular periods.
Designed and analysed in a certified lab, this finger-prick test helps identify internal imbalances that might be holding you back.
 
What It Tests
  • C-Reactive Protein (CRP)

    • A marker of inflammation and higher levels are often linked to acne flares, fatigue, and hormonal disruption.

  • Homocysteine

    • An amino acid associated with cardiovascular risk and poor detoxification. Homocysteine is elevated in PCOS and can worsen insulin resistance and oxidative stress.

  • Fasting Glucose & Insulin

    • These two biomarkers reveal how your body is managing blood sugar which is a key PCOS driver. Identifying insulin resistance early helps you intervene before it escalates.

 
Why This Test Matters for PCOS
Chronic inflammation and metabolic imbalance are common in PCOS, even if you’re eating well and exercising.
This test helps uncover patterns like:
  • Difficulty losing weight despite effort

  • Mood swings and energy crashes

  • Sugar cravings and hunger fluctuations

  • Skin flare-ups or cycle irregularity
