    Journal: Int J Fertil; 1987; 32(6):456-9. PubMed ID: 2891634.
    Abstract:
    An ultrasonographic study was performed on 45 patients with polycystic ovarian disease. These patients demonstrated hirsutism, menstrual disturbances, or infertility, as well as an increased LH/FSH ratio and/or evidence of hyperandrogenemia. Ovarian size was not correlated with age, Ponderal Index, serum testosterone, prolactin, androstenedione, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate or LH/FSH ratio in the 45 subjects studied.
