Default Does anyone know?

I went in for my pre-op appt on monday. They did an ultrasound and after severe pain for about 10 minutes, they found a problem with my left ovary and tube. (Couldnt find it at all at first with the ultra sound, but could feel it with an external exam) But they couldnt see the ovary clearly.

After the doctor and radiologist reviewed the ultrasound, they think that the ovary and tube are fused with either scar tissue from my previous lap or the 2 c-sections I had, or from the endo I currently had to my intestines, back of my uterus, or my spine. If that is the case, I will most likely have to have the ovary and tube removed. I was in shock to hear that, so I didnt think to ask, but would any of you all know if something like that cause my ovary to react in such a way to cause PCOS or at least the symptoms. I'll be asking my doctor next week when I have the Lap but I was hoping someone here might have that experience or at least could point me somewhere with a study or information about it. I have searched the web using google and come up empty!

thanks for the reply donnagial!

I know that PCOS didnt cause this problem, but I am wondering if the scar tissue on the ovary would cause the symptoms of PCOS.
