Consultant-Led PCOS Care

Dr Syed Kashif Hussain Kazmi — MRCPI, FRCP Glasgow, CCT in Diabetes and Endocrinology, IMC 213626, GMC 6117450 — conducts online PCOS consultations personally, with access to the established physical clinic in Naas whenever face-to-face assessment is clinically required.

A clinic letter is sent to your GP after your consultation, the same as after an in-person visit, and both self-referral and GP referral are accepted.

Scope, Tests and Prescriptions in Ireland

Managed in the online consultation

PCOS assessment is largely history, bloods and risk-factor based, which suits a structured video consultation.

  • Diagnosis review against the Rotterdam criteria and exclusion of mimics
  • Interpretation of androgen, SHBG, LH, FSH, prolactin and thyroid results
  • Metabolic screening — glucose or HbA1c, lipids — and cardiovascular risk discussion
  • Management of irregular periods, acne, hirsutism and hair thinning
  • Weight and insulin-resistance management, including where appropriate GLP-1 therapy, and pre-conception planning

Arranged locally to you or at the Naas clinic

Some parts of the work-up need a local service or hands-on assessment.

  • Pelvic (transvaginal or pelvic) ultrasound
  • An oral glucose tolerance test where indicated
  • Blood tests timed to a specific point in the cycle, arranged locally
  • Fertility treatment itself — facilitated by referral to a reproductive medicine service
  • In-person examination where clinically appropriate

Online PCOS Questions

Can PCOS be diagnosed and managed by video consultation?

Yes. Symptom review, hormone profile discussion, and metabolic management planning for PCOS are well suited to video or phone consultation with Dr Kazmi. A global consensus published in The Lancet (May 2026) formally renamed PCOS to PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome) — Dr Kazmi's assessment reflects this current terminology and diagnostic understanding.

Can PCOS blood tests be arranged for an online consultation?

Yes — hormone and metabolic blood tests can usually be arranged locally to you, with results reviewed at a follow-up video, phone or in-person consultation.

Is a pelvic ultrasound needed for PCOS diagnosis?

An ultrasound may be part of a full PCOS/PMOS work-up depending on your presentation. This is arranged locally to you or at the Naas clinic as needed — it is not something that can be performed during a video consultation itself.

Can weight management and insulin resistance related to PCOS be addressed online?

Yes. PCOS is closely linked to insulin resistance and weight, and this can be discussed as part of your online consultation, including GLP-1 therapy follow-up where clinically appropriate.

Is an online PCOS consultation suitable for newly suspected PCOS?

New patient assessment is possible online where a physical examination is not immediately required. Dr Kazmi will advise if an in-person visit or further testing is needed based on your history and symptoms.

Can PCOS be diagnosed in an online consultation?

Often, yes. A PCOS diagnosis uses the Rotterdam criteria — needing two of three features: irregular or absent ovulation, clinical or biochemical signs of raised androgens, and polycystic ovaries on ultrasound — after excluding other causes such as thyroid disease, raised prolactin and, where relevant, late-onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Much of this is history and blood tests, which Dr Kazmi can assess remotely. Where an ultrasound or a specifically timed blood test is still needed to complete or confirm the picture, that is arranged locally to you and reviewed at a follow-up.

I want to conceive — can an online PCOS consultation help?

Yes, as the first step. Dr Kazmi can review your cycle history and bloods, optimise weight and insulin resistance, address thyroid and prolactin issues, discuss folic acid and pre-conception health, and explain the options for ovulation induction. The fertility treatment itself — such as letrozole or clomifene cycles with monitoring, or referral for assisted reproduction — is delivered through a reproductive medicine service, and Dr Kazmi facilitates that referral with the relevant background already worked up.

How are blood tests arranged if I am seen online from outside Kildare?

Dr Kazmi identifies exactly which tests are needed for your PCOS and provides a request. In most cases these are done locally to you — through your GP practice, a hospital phlebotomy service, or a private lab — and the results are sent to the clinic and reviewed with you at a short follow-up by video, phone or in person. Where a test genuinely has to be done at a specific facility, that is explained before you proceed. You do not need to travel to Naas simply to have blood drawn.

Can a prescription be issued or changed after an online PCOS consultation?

Yes, where it is clinically appropriate. After the consultation Dr Kazmi sends a detailed letter to your GP setting out the diagnosis, the plan and any recommended change to metformin, the combined pill or other hormone treatment or other medication, so your GP can issue or adjust the prescription as part of shared care. Where a private prescription is more appropriate, the arrangements are discussed with you directly. Some changes are deliberately held until a blood test or an in-person review is done first.

How often will I need follow-up?

Follow-up intervals are individual to your condition, how stable it is, and Dr Kazmi's clinical judgement — they are not fixed for every patient. Many people with PCOS settle into a pattern of one or two reviews a year once treatment is established, with extra reviews around any medication change or new symptom. A clinic letter goes to your GP after every consultation so your primary care team stays informed throughout.

Is an online consultation right for a brand-new PCOS problem, or only follow-up?

Both. New-patient assessments are carried out online where a physical examination is not immediately required — Dr Kazmi takes a full history, reviews any results and referral information, and sets out an initial plan. If the assessment shows that a hands-on examination or an on-site test is needed to be safe and complete, an in-person appointment in Naas is arranged, usually as the next step after the video consultation rather than instead of it.
