I've read the symptoms of an ovarian cyst, but I have a few questions to someone who maybe has had one...For the past 3 months I get a pain, off and on, on my left side and the side is really sore about half-way through my cycle (it's hard to tell for sure because my cycles keep changing length) and it gets better after I start...if my 5 yr old accidently gets his elbow in my side...OUCH! The main part that hurts when I push on it, is more in my back...I've also had some of the other symptoms...sore breasts, feeling like I'm pregnant again and I'm not...I've also been exercising and watching what I eat and can not lose weight at all...my jeans are actually tighter around my belly than before. I had my annual Friday and although she said my exam was all normal, she went ahead and ordered an ultra sound. She didn't ask me a lot of questions about my pain or any other symptoms and didn't seem to take much time examining my ovaries. Could she have been able to tell if there was a cyst? Could it still be a cyst if I don't have the pain all time..if it comes and goes and gets worse if I bend a certain way or something? I'm wondering if I should get my family Dr.'s's opinion before I go for the ultrasound, or if this does sound like a possible cyst?
Thanks!!
