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&#8217;ll have too wait atleast 2 weeks before even asking and im just so sick of it. I&#8217;ve spent a good portion of my life in pain where i just want to get answers. I&#8217;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?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Im a teenage girl who suffers from very bad cramps and heavy periods since i was 9 years old.
