Question:
I've had a very irregular menstrual cycle after having gone off the pill 14 months ago. I can go anywhere from 20 to 65 days between periods. I've had several ultrasounds done, and although some showed enlarged ovaries, the doctor disregarded them claiming their size resulted from the timing of my cycle. I had another ultrasound done immediately after my last period, and the technician said it showed a "pearl necklace" - the follicles lined up side by side along the outside of the ovaries. She said this was usually an indication of PCOS. However, I googled the syndrome and other than the irregular and missed periods, I don't have any other symptoms. Could it still be PCOS? (I'm going to see my gynecologist next week with the ultrasound results to see what he thinks.)
Answers:
Yes you can have it without the symptoms. I would recommend going to a reproductive endocrinologist. I have PCOS and have had the run around from regular gyn's. Its very often mistreated and diagnosed by them thats why I recomment an RE...they basically specialize in it.
I would wait for a second opinion from the gyno.
