Avatar n tn PCOS is a syndrome There is no obvious causal link between polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and ovarian cancer. Although it’s not known for sure whether benign ovarian cysts or polycystic ovaries develop into ovarian cancer, the vast majority of ovarian cysts appear to be unrelated. Women who have polycystic ovaries or ovarian cancer seldom have obvious symptoms early on. However, in both disorders, symptoms are noticed as the condition progresses.

Avatar n tn Hi There, You might be better helped to see your gynecologist and go over your reports. While PCOS, polycystic ovarian syndrome, is a real medical diagnosis, this term is used commonly and inappropriately whenever a few cysts are seen in a young woman's ovaries. It is important to see you doctor to be sure that that truly is your diagnosis. PCOS is a complicated syndrome of insulin resistance, obesity, and ovarian hormone imbalance .
Avatar m tn For the past few years I have had Infrequent periods, I have experienced severe pelvic pain of the right ovary, crippling pain unable to function at work and school. When I did get medical help i've been told on two separate occasions that I had an ovarian cyst and was sent home with pain killers. After doing further research I found a doctor that was sure that my symptoms of irregular periods, nausua and pelvic pain was related to Pcos.

Avatar f tn Can ovarian cancer be mistaken for polycystic ovaries on a transvaginal ultrasound - or do they look different?
Avatar f tn I suffed from ovarian cysts since I was 14.. I'm 34 now and have just been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome.. though I haven't had a cyst that has caused me pain or discomfort in years.. The best thing to help combat and minimize the occurrence and severity of an ovarian cyst I found was exercise!! The release of serotonin somehow helps.. but I've become an avid Zumba goer and not only did it keep the cysts at bay, but it's a lot of fun..
Avatar f tn In January 2008 i was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Hyperthyroidism. Whilst visiting the endocrine department at the hospital in May 2008, I was then also diagnosed with Graves Disease, and am being checked for Diabetes.

Avatar f tn With the high testosterone and glucose levels as well as the ovarian cysts, it's possible she could have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) which is a metabolic disorder of insulin resistance. Cystic ovaries are a common manifestation of this disorder. The typical presentation of ovarian cysts associated with PCOS is a strand of pearls which cannot always be differentiated as separate cysts on ultrasound. These types of cysts do not require treatment.

Avatar f tn ve had irregular periods my whole life and it was eventually diagnosed to be Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). My Dr had to do internal ultrasounds and bloodwork to find all this out. My husband has morphology issues as well so we had to get help through a reproductive endocrinologist. I was given clomid to help with regulating my ovulation then we did the Hcg shot before doing an IUI. It took on the second procedure.
Avatar f tn It sounds like they are merely saying that the ultrasound findings are consistent with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is fairly common and is a condition of insulin resistance and usually elevated testosterone levels. Some common traits of PCOS (besides "beads" of cysts on the ovaries) are a tendency to be overweight or gain easily, excess body and facial hair, and acne.
