Hi there, wasn't sure where to post this so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong section.
My little sister had her left ovary and fallopian tube removed when she was just 18 because there was a tumor the size of a rugby ball wrapped round it. Since then she's had the worst stomach pains and recovery etc, it's not been easy for her.
A few years later and she's had another ultrasound showing that her right ovary, her only ovary, is polycystic. Realistically could this be causing all of her excruciating pain? Our mother and I have both been diagnosed with pcos before and neither have experienced pain, but I do appreciate that everybody's different. Just keep getting the feeling that something's being missed.
Does anyone also know how this would effect her fertility in the future? I know that pcos in general can affect fertility, but the fact that there's only one ovary too, does that make it any worse???
Sorry for the long post, the doctors don't answer questions well and I thought maybe someone out there had been in a similar situation.
