I have polycystic ovaries and found out 4 years ago through an ultrasound that my right ovary has a 1.5cm cyst. My right ovary measures 3.1cm x 3.8cm and my left is 2.4cm x 3.1cm. Are these sizes bigger than normal? What's the usual size for ovaries? I really want to know if these cysts can affect pregnancy and how to manage them without surgery or laser treatment. I'm 24, 147cm tall, and weigh 73kg. I also have a history of thyroid issues and currently take Thyroorm 88mcg and Metatime 500mg. Can you help me understand my condition better and suggest natural ways to recover? I've attached my recent prescription for reference.

I'm feeling a bit worried because my wife's been advised to get an HSG X-ray test. Is this something that's complicated? I'm also concerned about whether it might affect her chances of getting pregnant in the future. Could it possibly cause any infections or have side effects?

HSG (Hysterosalpingography) is a common radiology procedure used to evaluate the shape of the uterine cavity and the patency of the fallopian tubes. It involves injecting a contrast dye into the uterus and fallopian tubes while taking X-ray images. The procedure itself is generally safe and well-tolerated, with minimal complexities. It is not known to have a negative impact on future pregnancies. However, like any medical procedure, there are risks of infection or side effects, such as pelvic discomfort, cramping, or a slight risk of allergic reaction to the contrast dye used. These risks are usually minimal and the benefits of the test often outweigh the potential risks. It is important to follow any pre-test instructions provided by the healthcare provider and to inform the medical team of any allergies or medical conditions before undergoing the HSG test.
