Ovarian Mass after Hysterectomy

I am 30 years old.  I had a partial hyst last year. 6 months ago, I started having lower back pain.  I also have to go to the bath room within a half of an hour or so after eating. My mood is up and down, and I thing that my hormones are to blame.  I went to the doctor today, and he discovered a mass on my right ovary. I am really scared. I have to wait a week for the blood and test results to come back.  Is this normal in such a short time since my surgery?  Is it painful to remove an ovary???  I don't know what to do,  any help would be great.

Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words. I don't know the name of the test, but yes, the doctor is testing me for premenopause. My husband and I have been going through so much with my mood swings. I am not interested in sex at all, and the back pain is horrible. I hope the doctor can figure something out. I will keep you posted, and thanks again for the support. I am just shocked that I am going through all of this at 30.

Please don't jump into conclusion before final dx. A mass doesn't mean you have OVCA. It is still not sure dr will remove your ovary, even you need to have it removed, I don't think it will be more painful than your partial hysterectomy. I know waiting is difficult.

Please hanging in there and time will pass. We all have been there before.

Keep your time occupied as much as possible. You can also research what blood test you have done? If it is ca125 which can give you palse positive for premonopause women(dr will tell you)

Best wish

Peace and Love
