Polycystic ovary has not been detected before

The failure to detect follicles in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be related to factors such as ultrasound equipment and operating errors, abnormal ovulation function, and follicle development disorders. A systematic examination should be conducted in combination with the medical history, and treatment should be provided through methods such as hormone regulation, ovulation-inducing drugs, and lifestyle intervention.

1 Ultrasonic equipment and operating factors

Failure to detect follicles may sometimes be related to the resolution of the ultrasound equipment or accidental errors in operation. For example, if the ultrasound equipment is too old or the resolution is insufficient, it may not be able to clearly display small follicles. If the examination time is not around the ovulation period, the best observation window may also be missed. The solution is to compare the results of multiple examinations, choose high-quality equipment, and arrange the examination time according to the menstrual cycle under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Ovulation dysfunction

Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome often have abnormal ovulation function. This is due to excessive androgen levels or disordered hormone secretion, which leads to stagnation or immaturity of follicle development. If the follicles have not developed to a certain size, it is naturally difficult to detect them under ultrasound. Treatment can try to adjust hormone levels, such as using metformin to improve insulin sensitivity, or inducing ovulation through medical methods such as Clomiphene.

3Dysfunction of follicle development

Follicular development disorder is one of the core issues of PCOS. The follicles may remain in the early stages and cannot continue to develop, which can easily lead to polycystic changes. Doctors may use gonadotropins such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to stimulate the ovaries to help improve the development of follicles. At the same time, weight control can effectively improve ovarian function, which is a safe and long-term intervention measure.

For undetected follicle problems, patients should maintain a scientific attitude and conduct detailed examinations under the guidance of doctors to determine whether it is a practical problem or a technical problem. Through standardized treatment, the ovarian function of most patients can be improved to a certain extent. It is recommended to combine treatment plans with healthy living habits.
