PCOS: A single cyst on your ovary does not automatically mean that you have PCOS. Typically, women with PCOS present with multiple findings such as irregular periods, obesity, coarse facial hair, scalp hair loss, oily skin and multiple episodes of cysts. If you have some of these symptoms, you should see your GP for a full workup which will include lab tests.
