Patient's question:
I am a patient with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and I am currently 6 months pregnant. I would like to know if this condition affects the fetus. Could the ovarian cysts grow? I am very worried. I don't know if prenatal check-ups with ultrasound will also examine the ovaries. Is it possible to see more clearly with 3D ultrasound? Can all abnormalities be detected with it? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is necessary to strictly carry out prenatal examinations. If necessary, amniocentesis and umbilical cord blood analysis should be performed between 16-20 weeks. There are many causes of polycystic ovary syndrome, and patients need to be diagnosed and treated promptly. It is recommended to seek treatment at a formal hospital. Pay attention to the development of the condition, avoid indiscriminate treatment, and pay attention to self-care, including a balanced diet, maintaining cleanliness, and best wishes for your recovery!
