Should I Be Worried As I Am Left With Just One Ovary?
my recent ultrasound scan shows that my right ovary is slightly bulky 14cc with multiple follicles found in it. also i had an ovarian cyst about 8cm which was removed along with the left ovary about 2 years ago. since i am left with just one ovary should i be worried.

Hello,
You do not need to be worried about having a single ovary as it is not to cause any issues. However, your ultrasound is suggestive of underlying polycystic ovarian disease for which you need to follow up with OBGYN for detailed evaluation and management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
