Hi, wonder if anyone could help clear up some confusion for me. I need to have a scan on my ovaries as pain is becoming unbearable.
About two years ago, I had a private scan (transvaginal) and it showed a 22mm simple fluid filled cyst on my left ovary. No concern. My NHS appt came in 2 weeks later, AFTER I'd ovulated, and the ultrasound (regular ) didn't pick up any cyst at all. Nothing.
So now, two years later, the pain is back with a vengeance and lasts for about a week of my cycle. I want to get a private scan done again, but having spoke to the advisor, I was told I can be scanned any day of my cycle. Wouldn't it be better post ovulation ?
In your experience whats the best time to be scanned? My concern is for ovarian cancer.
Thanks
