Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
From the ultrasound report you have furnished, Right Ovary dimensions shows that it is enlarged as the normal dimensions should be 3.5 x 2.1 x 2.8 cm.
this could be due to presence of multiple immature follicles at the periphery.
The picture is indicative of polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD).
This condition is a treatable condition but it results in irregular menstruation and/or ovulation, leading to difficulty in conceiving.
Kindly consult Gynecologist with the report for further evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
