Thanks you so much Bhupinder mam.
i went my gyneacologist and she prescribed  a medicine to induce my period.but next day itself i got my period without consumng that medicine.
Now i am taking a contraceptive pill named "Yamini" along with "cetapin" which will keep a watch on my weight and also cromoplex which is a B complex tablets.Doc has asked me to continue the medication for two months for now and again meet her after that.I want to conceive also next year.My LH/FSH ratio is also 1:1(not sure but doc said no issues with that).
Well thank u so much for your advice and concern.

Hello,
The normal adult ovary measures approximately 3cm - 5cm in length, 1.5cm - 3cm in width, and 0.5cm - 1.5cm in thickness. So definitely the size of ovaries is much more and these symptoms can be due to PCOD.

One of the most effective treatments is use of contraceptive pills or progesterone pills. It can also be treated surgically and this procedure is known as drilling. Try losing weight as it helps a lot to normalize menstruation. Try conceiving between 8-21 days of your cycle as it is fertile period. You may also try a pelvic laparoscopy to treat anovualtion if you don`t ovulate. Glucophage affects the action of insulin and is useful in reducing a number of the symptoms and complications of PCOS and also useful in the management of irregular periods, ovulation induction, weight loss, prevention of type 2 diabetes, and prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus in women with PCOS. Weight loss can help reduce or prevent many of the complications associated with PCOS.

You can discuss these treatment options with a gynecologist/ endocrinologist and start the treatment.
