Hi,
I understand your concern and would explain that your wife's symptoms could be related to a hormonal imbalance.
For this reason, I would recommend performing an abdominal ultrasound to exclude ovary cysts and some blood lab tests (complete blood count for anemia, thyroid hormone levels, sex hormone levels.)
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
Cardiologist
