PCOD, Irregular Periods, Bulky Ovaries, Multiple Follicles. Conceive?
I have recently got an ultrasound done. I suffer from PCOD from the age of 13 i have had irregular periods. ANd have been on hormone medicines on and off. I am now 31yrs old and married for the past 2.5 years. The report states i have Bulky ovaries with multiple tiny follicles - suggestive of PCOD. Both ovaries appear bulky with multiple follicles. Right ovary measures : 38 x 30 x 24 mm, vol - 14 cc. Left ovary measures : 18 x 21 x 35 mm, vol - 9 cc. What does this mean? And will this create problems for me to conceive.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Bulky ovaries with visible multiple follicles arranged along the margin of ovary are suggestive of polycystic ovaries and such ovaries fail to develop normal ovulatory follicles with every cycle. You might face some difficulty in conceiving.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
