follicles

i had a pelvic ultrasound and it says" several small follicles are seen in both ovaries and minimal free fluid seen in posterior cul de sac, what does it mean???


This discussion is related to Multi follicles on ovaries.

I looked at a former post regarding follicles that was answered by the doctor on the forum just to be sure, and she states that follicles are a normal occurance, they occur during ovulation. A small amount of free fluid can occur in the cul de sac during the middle of a menstrual cycle. It seems like you US is pretty normal.
I suggest you call your gyn to discuss the results of your test to see if there's anything else on it that may warrant further investigation.

I forgot to ask why did you have the test done? Where you having pain or discomfort and did the doctor indicate you may have a cyst? Having multiple follicles can be a symptom of a condition called polycystic ovaries, but it is not the only factor in determining this condition. In any event, you need to follow up with your gyn to find his evaluation of your test results. When you have more infomation and have any questions, let us know.

If you indeed have polycystic ovaries there is a forum that specifically deals with that too.  Good luck with everything.
