Any ideas?
Hi ladies! I have an OBGYN appt next week, but I thought in the meantime I would post my concern on the forum. In the past 3 months, I have had a very dull to mild achiness in my lower left pelvic abdomen area. I can't really call it a "pain" because it doesn't hurt. It can be more pronounced some days more than than others...today, it's been steady. I don't want to panic or get myself worked up, because I don't do well with health problems : ) but I was curious if any of you may have had the same thing, or may have an idea what it could be. thanks!
Thank you for your helpful reply! I'm thinking it's a cyst as well. I'll post after I find out.

Hi there. I have had that type of pain many, many times. I think it is part of being female. But, many times it does indicate an ovarian cyst. Most cysts are benign and go away on their own over time. So, try not to worry. Finding conditions early is the key to a cure in most medical conditions including many cancers. It would be a good idea to ask your doctor for a transvaginal ultrasound to rule out a cyst. The achiness and uneven feeling is very indicative of a cyst. Be sure to mention all your current symptoms even if they don't seem related. Cysts often put pressure on other organs and can cause urinary urgency and a general pressure feeling. Best wishes on a clean bill of health at your appointment! :)
