Hi all,
I’ve recently been through the ringer. Having had pelvic inflammatory disease (for no apparent reason!) this then lead to my doctor sending me for an internal scan which shows lots of little cysts on my ovaries.
The lady who did my scan told me she suspected them to be chocolate cyst which often are caused due to endometriosis. I am now awaiting an appointment with a Gynaecologist to investigate things further. Ever since the pelvic inflammatory disease my periods have been acting strange, they are lighter than normal and erratic lasting seven day, nine days and now three days. It’s all a bit odd as I have never had a period be so light before and last anything other than five days.
However I have been digging around and doing some research. I was on the mini pill Cerazette for about half a year, towards the last few months before I stopped it completely I wasn’t great at taking it as neither myself nor my partner were very committed to avoiding pregnancy.
When the pelvic inflammatory disease happened I stopped the pill instantly. Since then I have been digging into the Cerazette pill and although my GP told me it doesn’t cause cyst I vaguely remembered reading something about them doing so in the leaflet that came in their box.
Some good old google detective skills and I found said leaflet that confirmed I was right. It’s listed a an uncommon symptom but a symptom nonetheless.
I was wondering if any of you ladies whom have taken Cerazette have had cysts of any kind? As I’m almost convinced this is what caused mine. It’s the only thing keeping me sane whilst I await my gynaecologist appointment.
The thought of having endometriosis brings a different kind or fear & worry however I am finding peace in the fact that I don’t have any of the symptoms associated with it and I’m hoping that it’s not my case. My partner and I are now very much committed to welcoming a bubba into our lives & these cysts & a possible endometriosis diagnosis is causing all sorts of issue in our plans.
Hope your all well & staying safe with this virus being about.
xx
