A member asked:

Can i still have pcos and cysts not be shown on an abdominal ultrasound?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ovarian cysts are an important part of the diagnosis of PCOS and if there are no cysts, you may not have PCOS. For information: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pcos/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20353443 Wish you good health!
