Pediatrician,  's  Response
greetings,

as you have told in your daughters case,the exact position of the left ovary can be made out from the detailed imaging studies.
its just not the size,but also the texture and other quality of the ovaries which matters.
so in a nutshell.you should consult your doctor who had earlier seen your daughter and try following up with him as he can physically examine and be able to decide in a better way.
hope it helps.
