Did you mean Ovarian Volume?

GlossaryOvarian Volume

measurement of ovary's three-dimensional space in cubic centimeters

Ovarian Volume, also known as Ovarian Size, refers to the measurement of the three-dimensional space occupied by an ovary, typically expressed in cubic centimeters (cm³). This metric is important in assessing ovarian health and function, and can be used to diagnose conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or ovarian tumors. It is usually determined through imaging techniques like ultrasound.

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied

in Research 830 upvotes 1 year ago

Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
