Hello,
Good day.
Is your periods regular?
Since when are you having increased hair growth. Do you think your voice is a bit husky? Do you think there is some enlargement of your clitoris recently? Do you have nipple discharge?
The blood tests shows a raised LH. In fact, these hormone tests are to be done on the third day of periods in the morning. You have to check fot Thyroid functions and Prolactin too. The ultrasound scan looks okay. But even that has to be done on third or fourth day of periods. Please visit www.ovarypolycystic.blogspot.in for further reading. My advice would be to meet an endocrinologist who will examine you and advice further
