That you can only know from a pelvic scan and cysts on the ovaries don't always mean it's PCOS.
Yes. I just found it odd you would list that there as a signs/symptom list which is something that requires diagnostic imaging to do and not at a primary prevention level.
It isn't a primary symptom but its still a symptom. I thought to add it too.
A symptom is a subjective claim. A sign is an objective phenomenon another person can validate through the 5 senses. I appreciate you making a post for awareness about the disease. I just found it odd you listed cysts on ovaries where the only way to find out is through the use of imaging studies (secondary level of prevention) vs your main content (first level of prevention). It stuck out like a sore thumb on the list. If you don't understand what I mean about the levels of health prevention, we can stop right here and I'll understand.
I totally understand you. It did look out of place to me. I thought it wouldn't hurt because in most awareness posters I came across, it was listed too.
