HI Please I Need A Doctor Asap For 2nd Opinion
Question: HI Please I need a doctor asap for 2nd opinion and to review my lab results. I am advised that I need surgery ASAP and the doctors will open me up from belly button to my uterus to check and see whats going on. I have had surgery in the past since I was unable to have children. I am a female 50 years old. Lately I have had excess of hair and the testosterone is a bit high. Please help me. I currently take medicine for Diabetes, High cholesterol, high blood pressure and Acid reflux
Brief Answer:
Yes, they are right.

Hello
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
You have abnormal serum hormon levels, which is suggestive of some source, which is secreting abnormal amount of hormone.
Now, on ultrasound report, there is suspicion of testosterone secreting tumour inside ovary, but they are not sure, as ultrasound has some limitations.
So to confirm that and for tissue biopsy, surgery is required.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards

So to confirm the lab reports the physician needs a tissue biopsy from my ovary?
I had surgery before and very scared about that. the doctors really messed me up because I was trying to have kids long ago. I had surgery in my ovaries because of medical issues that arose. I am worried that if i perform surgery it will affect the liver, kidney and other organs as well.
