Abstract:

Two-hundred and seventeen subjects underwent transvaginal ultrasound -17 (8%) had unilateral polycystic ovary (PCO). Twelve percent of subjects with unilateral scan-pea had oligomenorrhea, 24% were amenorrheic, 23% were hirsute and 29% had acne. Biochemical parameters were compared between subjects with unilateral scan- PCO and those with bilateral scan- PCO (n=200) as well as a group of scan-normal women (n=29). No significant difference was found between subjects with bilateral and unilateral scan- PCO suggesting that these 2 groups are biochemically similar. The existence of unilateral scan- PCO suggests that peas may be a primary ovarian disorder.
