My menstrual cycle is normal, no problems there. No other symptoms besides the abdominal pain. I have made an appointment with a urologist but it isn't for another week. Now I have noticed that the abdominal pain is increasing in frequency and it seems to be connected to what I eat. If I eat a big meal, the pain is stronger (5 out of 10 in a pain scale) and lasts longer. Would a urologist be able to help me if it is a problem with my gallbladder or intestines? Thank you for your help.
Hi,
I suggest that you go seek a urologic consult. A repeat urinalysis with urine culture will be able to guide management. Also, a baseline ultrasound of the kidneys, ureter and bladder will be able to rule out any urinary tract stones.
Also, a gynecologist consult may be necessary .Have you ever had a pelvic examination done? A complete pelvic examination and a pap smear may be able to help. This is just to rule out any underlying gynecologic involvement.
Are there any problems with the menstrual cycle?
Any significant sexual history which could have led to your symptoms?
