Polycystic ovary
Polycystic ovaries is an abnormally high number (more than 12) of visible follicles in the ovaries. It is referred to as polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM). This can also cause the ovaries to appear large in size.This condition is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) but is not the only criteria required or necessary to be diagnosed. Polycystic ovary syndrome requires two out of three criteria for diagnosis. The three criteria are: infrequent or absent periods, high levels of androgens (male hormones) or polycystic morphology. Imaging alone cannot diagnose PCOS.
Disclaimer: The condition listed on this page is an example of findings that may be identified through Prenuvo's MRI screenings. A Prenuvo scan is designed to help identify potential abnormalities that may warrant further evaluation and is not intended to diagnose disease or replace evaluation by a qualified healthcare provider, diagnostic testing, or guideline-recommended screening.
