I need help! Cysts? Pregnancy?...?
| Sun, 10-26-2003 - 7:05am |
Hello,
I have no idea what is going on with me...in late August I had what I thought were very strong pregnancy symptoms (bloating, nausea, tiredness, sore breasts, slight pinkish spotting). I went to the hospital after two negative HPT tests and the doctor suggested that I may have uterine cysts. I have had very irregular or non-existent periods a few years before starting the pill (which I took for a year) and since getting off of it last January - I only had one period in May...so I had an ultrasound done around 10 days after the symptoms started and no cysts were found. Literally the next day the symptoms almost completely disappeared. Now in early Oct. the symptoms came back very strong (still no period) except this time they are not going away. And my lower abdomen is extended and kinda hard. Two negative HPTs. I went to the doctor and I had some blood tests done (liver, thyroid, etc) incl. a pregnancy test (won't get results for more than a week)... Can this be from cysts? Is it possible that in Aug the cyst-condition was as yet undetectable? I'm not having any pain...just discomfort and slight cramping. Also, alot of white, un-smelly discharge (sorry). Please share your experiences with me...
Thanks!

Hi Trisha!
It's certainly possible that ovarian cysts could be causing the symptoms.
