Is PCOS and PCOD a lifelong problem? Can it never be completely cured? I have PCOD with hirsutism, and my report shows polycystic changes in the left ovary.

PCOS is manageable with lifestyle changes and regular care. It can improve with the right steps but may not be cured fully. USG can confirm the presence of cysts so get done USG abdomen and pelvis soon

I have been experiencing irregular periods with a gap of about two months, along with abdominal pain. I had an ultrasound, and it showed two retention cysts and a nabothian follicle in the cervix. I am attaching my report. Please suggest what I should do

I want to share a health concern regarding my wife. She had an abortion on 4th March. After a long gap, her menstruation resumed on 16th May. During this time, we have undergone various tests based on the advice of doctor, and we have also consulted her regarding the test reports. I would like advice regarding the problems she experiences just before and during her periods, which include vomiting and urinary tract infections that continue during menstruation. What could be the reasons for these symptoms, and what steps should we take to manage them?

My report stated multiple peripheral follicles with central echogenic stroma in both ovaries. Polycystic appearance on both ovaries.
