Knee pain, both legs

Question

Asked for Male, 29 Years

Hi, I have knee pain while climbing steps or while sitting and standing up.. when I checked with doc, he has said it's osteoarthritis. But I am not sure if my overweight could be the possible reason. Can someone suggest the best way to determine the level of osteoarthritis I have with some tests.
