Hello and welcome to HCM,
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is characterised by irregular menstruation and elevated testosterone levels.
These are other hormonal abnormalities associated with PCOS.
Treatment of PCOS will correct the hormonal imbalance and thus control the symptoms of irregular menstruation and hormonal imbalances.
Thus, consult your gynecologist for treatment of PCOS.

Thanks and take care
