Ovarian Cysts and Heavy Bleeding?

by ARANK, Dec 24, 2006 12:00AM
To make a long story short, I went to the ER a little over a week and a half ago about some intense pain I had been getting for year now that always seemed to come after my period was over. The doctors had me do a CAT scan as well as an Ultra scan. They found ovarian cysts on my ovaries(has not been tested for cancer...YET). They said that the cysts were about a 2 in size and there was three on my left ovary and two on my right (smaller on the right one). Well, the day after going to the ER I started to bleed heavy with large clots in bleeding.My cycle has always been the first week of every month.Its never changed..until now.. and always lasted two to three days-regular flow. I have been bleeding heavy for a a little over a week now. Going threw 2 tampons (regular size) in a hr. I have been constinally bleeding every day since. I have read about the rupture of a cyst and was wondering if this is what could be happening. I am not on any kind of medicine nor any kind of birth control. I just want to know if this extreme, bleeding is normal? but there again what is normal for something like this?! My history: I have one daughter,no extreme medical history on me other than asthma as a child. I'm 28 yrs old. There is Cancer in my family, my sister a few yrs back got dignosed with cancer in the ovaries. If anyone can help or give any information I would appreciate it. I do plan to return to the doctors after the holiday season is over. Looking for more information until than.Thank you for your time and thanks for reading this. ARANK
