Pcod and iron deficiency
Recently doctor confirmed pcod after doing ultrasound but in blood test report all hormone was normal and I don't have diabetes or thyroid too. Only my ferritin level was low. Doctor prescribed iron tablet fefol and no other oral contraceptive. I want to know if my iron deficiency was the reason behind my irregular periods and can it be considered pcod?

Iron deficiency is not the reason for irregular periods
the diagnosis of pcos is by an ultrasound where in the ovarian volume is more than 10 CC
