How does B-ultrasound show polycystic ovary syndrome

Women should pay attention to proper health care and have a good life and diet routine. If there are symptoms of endocrine imbalance, polycystic ovary syndrome may occur. Can B-ultrasound examination be performed? What does B-ultrasound of polycystic ovary show?

1. Polycystic ovary ultrasound display information

B-ultrasound can show that the echo of the uterine and ovarian outer membrane is significantly increased. The most important thing is that more than 12 echo-free areas with a diameter of 2-9mm can be seen on one or both sides of the uterus and ovaries, tightly surrounding the edge of the uterus and ovaries, in a wheel-like arrangement, and ovulation needs to be monitored continuously. If during the menstrual cycle, especially during the ovulation period, no mature follicles are seen, and no signs of ovulation are seen, then it is considered whether polycystic ovary syndrome may exist.

2. Symptoms of polycystic ovary

1. The first symptom is infertility. If polycystic ovary syndrome occurs, it may affect the normal ovulation period and may also cause women to become infertile. Therefore, appropriate treatment methods should be selected to alleviate the condition.

2. If obesity occurs, some women may develop hirsutism, which is usually caused by a significant increase in androgen. Some women may also develop more hair in the center of the abdomen or at the base of the thighs.

3. If menstrual disorders occur, patients with polycystic ovary syndrome will have a significant decrease in menstrual volume and may also suffer from amenorrhea. Polycystic ovary syndrome can cause symptoms of dysmenorrhea, and can cause irregular menstruation or irregular uterine bleeding.

3. Treatment

1. Medication treatment has the effect of counteracting androgen, which is beneficial to the ovulation period of the uterus and ovaries. The medicines are mainly contraceptives, and they can also adjust the menstrual cycle. Generally, it takes about 3-6 months to take, and you can stop taking it after the hormone level test is normal. This is the treatment for polycystic ovary.

2. Surgical treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome, namely laparoscopic treatment. If the effects of other treatments are not very good, laparoscopic treatment should be considered. Under laparoscopic surgery, the ovum is surgically punctured to reduce the level of male hormones to achieve the therapeutic effect.
