Asking for Self, Female, 24 years old, Karachi

Hi,

I need doctors help related to hormones. I have thick hairs on chin and sides (face), breast and overall body is hairy. Periods are regular but flow is less. Overweight. Consulted with endocrinologist in Agha khan and she asked me for several blood tests on 2nd day of period (tsh, fsh, lh, prolactin, testosterone, 17 hydroxy progestrone, estradiol, cortisol, sgpt, lipid profile, ogtt). All tests were fine, except prolactin is high (45), estradiol is low (16.48), 17 hydroxy progestrone is high (4.7). Looking at these results, doctor asked me for MRI pituitary PRL and 17 OH progestrone after 1 hour administration of ACTH 250 mg injection. My questions are below: Where can I get this MRI done? I called dow radiology, they asked me to have serum test before this MRI and ziauddin radiology asked for some injection and MRI cost 28k. I am totally confused. I couldn't find ACTH injection even in Agha Khan. Any endocrinologist or gynaecologist please help or share your opinion.

In my opinion you must ask the doctor from where to purchase the injection and from where you have the MRI done. Secondly I would like you to go for serum testosterone levels from AKUH lab at 13/14 days “before” the start of your periods (at ovulation), that’s when we get the best response. Thirdly, although the normal range varies from 8-48, but in my practice I have noticed that in majority of women facial hair growth and scalp hair fall starts at low levels of approx 25. In my opinion you must contact me at any of my clinic after you have the fresh reports. At the same time ie 14 days before start of periods when you go for the testosterone blood test also have an ultrasound of your lower pelvis because that is the time when one has most cysts in the ovaries.
