Re: ultrasound diagnosis of polycystic ovariesFrom: Fazeel (fazeel@atd.hazara.net.pk)Thu Mar 21 13:15:19 2002
I think serial ovulation monitoring also needs to be done to tell that these polycystic ovaries are "anovulatory" as well, the usual cause of infertility or sub-fertility. In PCO the dominant follicle may not appear. I've also noticed many of these women also having fatty livers, family history of diabetes and hypertension. Male pattern infraumbilical/pubic hair....besides other points already mentioned like...multiple follicles of about same size around 6 mmms, arranged in periphery and central increased stromal tissue. fazeel -----Original Message----- From: ultrasound@obgyn.net [mailto:ultrasound@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of An.

Your name -Terry J DuBose- is very familiar to me. I often visit your excellent website. Several months ago, your reports on fetal mild ventriculomegaly were be very useful for such a case. Really, I beleived that you are a physician. I am an obstetrician-gynecologist with interestimg in fetal medicine as well as in reproduction. Regarding our recent subject, I very soon see on ultrasound ovaries that look like your description, but they have normal size (length<35mm), normal stroma and the patient has regular cycle and no sign of hyperadrogonadism. Others has several 'atretic' follicles larger in size as usual (7-8mm). How I could say them? My question still exist. What exactly I must see, to write that a woman has either 'normal' or polycystic ovaries in my report. Best wishes from Greece Dr. Yiannis Nickolidakis
