It is important because testosterone is a sex hormone that plays important roles in the body. In men, it regulates sex drive (libido), bone mass, fat distribution, muscle mass and strength, and the production of red blood cells and sperm.

I have a history of PCOS. On day 15 of my cycle, my follicle size in the right ovary was 14 by 10 mm, and I also had an FSH test done on the same day. After 3 days, I went for a repeat scan, and the report showed no dominant follicles. What does this mean?
