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

Question

As per my recent report, I have been advised that I have thyronormalcy. I would like to know if this is something to be concerned about. I have also noticed that I am gaining fat around my lower belly quite rapidly, and regular workouts do not seem to be helping. I also have a history of ovarian cysts. Do I need to consider any medical treatment, or should I continue with regular exercise and lifestyle changes?

Question

My report says that multiple cysts are found in the ovaries, but I have no other symptoms of PCOS. There is no weight gain, no excess hair growth, no acne, and my periods come exactly on the 28th day. Do I still have PCOS?

Question

Hi Doc, this is my report. My total sperm count is 18 million per ml, with 0 percent active motile, 30 percent slowly motile, and 70 percent non motile or dead. Can you please explain what this means?
