Polycystic ovaries are a condition where
ovaries contain excess primordial follicles. Despite the name Polycystic it
does not contain any cyst and contains only follicles. The follicles are
naturally present in the ovaries and they are small fluid filled sacs
containing ovum or eggs. Normally during reproductive years each ovary contain
5-12 follicles but when there are 12-15 follicles in an ovary the ovary is
called Polycystic.
When the presence of follicles is severe
say more than 50 follicles then the condition is called as Polycystic Ovarian
Syndrome (PCOS) which is different from Polycystic Ovaries and causes
infertility, increased facial hair and disturbed hormonal balance.
