Do you know that Ovarian stromal volume has been correlated with serum Testosterone concentrations ?

Therefore The diagnosis of PCO is best made not on the clinical presentation but rather on the ovarian morphology.

. There have been many attempts to redefine the morphological appearance of the PCO by using transvaginal ultraso­nography, three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging. It is now known that ovarian stromal volume has been correlated with serum Testosterone concentrations   and may provide more useful informa­tion then the volume of the cysts. Furthermore, ovarian volume correlates well with stromal volume as a marker of hyperandrogenism and is easier to measure in practice than stromal volume . Ovarian volume is usually greater than 10 ml, compared with the normal ovarian volume of ml.
