Hello
Thanks for your query.
The condition that you are facing is called PCOS ( polycystic ovarian syndrome ).
There is basic hormonal imbalance, due to which, the ovary gets studded with multiple small follicles, resembling cysts.
None of them mature like normal every month to form a dominant follicle, hence there is difficulty in menstruation and ovulation.
you need to have the following additional tests - FSH and LH on day 2 of cycle, oral glucose tolerance test, DHEAS, free testosterone, lipid profile.
Metformin can be given to control cycles.
weight loss is a must if you are overweight.
clomiphene can be taken to induce ovulation for fertility.
take care.
