Ovarian cysts are hard because the symptoms are so random and hard to pinpoint, until they aren't! I have had more ovarian cysts than I can count and the symptoms all sound like mine. I actually think I have another right now and have been doing the same thing, second guessing every symptom and not wanting to deal with the doctor again. Sometimes it is just better to be safe than sorry though. Sorry you are dealing with this, it is no fun at all
All the best to you! Hope your report is negative and you just need something minor, like vitamin.
Thanks
I'm booking an appointment asap
I keep getting light headed & just don't feel right
Hi. I don't want to freak you out. While I've never had kids, I am 28 years old and now recovering from surgery due to ovarian cysts. My right ovary and tube had to be removed. I was suffering from pretty similar experiences you mentioned.
I would say book an appointment with your gyn. I know work and all of that seems to prevent time but make it. Your health is worth it. I wished I hadn't focused on my work and actually taken care of my health sooner. All the best to you.
Welcome to the community. I am sorry you are dealing with this. The recent heavy period could possibly have been your body making up for the lighter ones. But it could also be related to the pelvic pain you've been having. With your history of ovarian cysts, it is possible you have another one. Thankfully, they usually go away on their own in 2 to 3 cycles. If the pain continues it would be a good idea to see a doctor. If it is easier to see your primary care doctor, he/she can order an ultrasound and do a pap smear.
Keep us posted on what you find out and how you are doing.
