Hormone problems what tests to ask the doctor for?

I was told a few years ago I may have pcos they were unable to tell for certain by the blood tests as at the time the contraception I had effected the results. I did have cysts on my ovaries which were identified by having a scan but that doesn't necessarily mean I have the syndrome.

Now a couple of years later I asked for blood tests to check for pcos and my iron leaves and other things.

The results came back saying I have very low iron which I can deal with.

It also said I have a certain hormone that is partially high and is often that high in women that are going through menopause (I am only 28).

The doctor said I should repeat the test which I will. But what I want to know is if there is a full hormone and perhaps vitamin check up I could have done?

I do feel like my hormones are u balanced and I would like this fully looked into either through the NHS or even if I could go somewhere privately to have these checks made?

Any ideas welcome
