What's the best time during the cycle to get tested for it?
Has anyone here gotten tested for PCOS?

IDK. I made an appointment and didn't really pay attention to its relation to my cycle.

I got tested via blood test about 10 years ago. My cycle did not have any involvement with the testing.

My doctor said the best time to be tested is day 2-4 of your period

PCOS is not conclusively diagnosed without a positive ultrasound showing multiple ovarian cysts. While bloodwork is certainly helpful in the diagnosis it is
not the hallmark of the syndrome. If you truly have PCOS the cysts are there all the time so it doesn't really matter when tested.
