Hello,
Thanks for writing in.

As mentioned in your report,
Right ovarian volume is 14cc with small peripheral follicles.Not fulfilling criteria for cystic ovary .
Left ovarian volume is 5.5cc.

Normal ovary volume is take upto 10 cc.
In your report the right ovary is 3 times the size of left one besides it is not typically a cystic ovary either as expressed by your doctor.

You have not told the reason why you got ultrasound done and if liver also has any changes.

Any ways CA125 is a biochemical marker and is a very sensitive blood test for ovary disease.
I suggest your doctor wants to make a more clear diagnosis and wants to rule out any major problems.

Hope this helps.
