Ideally, your own OB/Gyn would test you for this, as this is usually not what your family doctor can do. There are also women's clinics like Susan G. Koman, that specialize in women's disorders (Koman, for instance, focuses on breast cancer, but they could probably steer you in the right direction).

How soon can you test for PCOS after going off the pill?
Wait a few months after going off the pill to see if your periods are still regular. If you don't have a period for 2-3 months and aren't pregnant, see your OB or reproductive endocrinologist to be tested for PCOS. Often times the pill can mask the symptoms of PCOS and you won't know you have it until after you go off the pill.
Can you ovulate when you have PCOS?
