Hi,

Your wife's scan report says she is having polycystic ovaries.

I would like to have some more information before I can give my opinion.

1. Where does she feel the pain - upper or lower abdomen?
2. Is the pain continuous or intermittent?
3. Any other symptoms like nausea vomiting, fever, loose stools, painful urination?
