Im a teenage girl who suffers from very bad cramps and heavy periods since i was 9 years old. I go through multiple maternity pads every day of my period until the end and the pain has caused me to faint, throw up and miss a lot of school. I have family history of PCOS and endometriosis so i finally got an ultrasound today ny medical professions. They could only see my uterus though not my fallopian tubes or my ovaries which i know endo can be. So they wrote it off as nothing but i know its not just nothing. They reccomended tests and work at my gp but i’ll have too wait atleast 2 weeks before even asking and im just so sick of it. I’ve spent a good portion of my life in pain where i just want to get answers. I’ve been put on loads of things to stop the pain and nothing helps! Has anyone gone through this because i think im going crazy and undermining my pain. Is it really nothing or should i try push for a better scan where they can see my ovaries?? Is it really just nothing?

Hi.

I had a similar experience. I did not let them write off my pain. I kept on them until I FINALLY got the testing I needed. Turns out I had ovarian cysts and my right ovarian cyst was so large, my ovary had to be removed.

The point of my story is to keep pushing forward and don't let doctors downplay your experience. YOU know what you feel. Also, don't be afraid to ask for different tests. I had X rays and ultra Sounds first before i had a vaginal ultrasound and thats how they discovered the cysts.

 

I hope the best for you and your situation.
