I started my period in 2013. Since then, I have been experiencing irregular periods with gaps of 2 to 3 months. Recently, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD). My blood report shows that my FSH level is 42.82, which my doctor says is quite high. Could you please explain more about this condition?

PCOD often causes irregular periods and high FSH or LH levels. Symptoms may include acne, hair thinning, weight gain, and fertility issues. Lifestyle changes, weight control, and hormone balancing meds can help. Do not worry many women manage PCOD successfully.

Take a FSH and LH Test Test or Take a AMH Test (Anti Mullerian Hormone) Test

Question

I am sharing my miscarriage report. This is my first conception in 3 years, but unfortunately, I lost the pregnancy. I have been diagnosed with bilateral PCOS, but this report shows only a cyst on my left ovary, while the right ovary appears normal. Does this mean my PCOS is cured or improved? I am feeling confused and would appreciate your clarification.

Question

I have attached my recent medical report for your reference. I am currently taking Divery 10 mg tablets, prescribed to help induce my periods, and today is the last (5th) day of the course. However, I still have not gotten my period. Along with this, I am experiencing several other symptoms including full body pain, hair fall, mood swings, irritability, lack of focus, weakness, morning dizziness (especially on days I do not exercise), and muscle pain throughout the day.

Question

My pelvic ultrasonography report reads Bilateral polycystic ovarian morphology. What does this mean? Do I have PCOS or PCOD?
