Hi, I am not a regular on here but would welcome advice.
My gp suspected I had ibs as have intermittent bloating (tummy flares up like I am 4 months pregnant) and had bowel problems. However, another gp asked how my periods were, rather than concentrating on the bowel problems and bloating. They are awful, terribly heavy and very painful so sent for scan. Scan revealed fibroids and that one of my ovaries is stuck to uterus..I am now awaiting gynae referral. I would welcome advice as to whether fibroids can cause such tummy bloating, maybe the ibs doesnt exist and perhaps it is all interlinked to the fibroids??? I am only a size 8 but feel so full, heavy and fat around my tummy. Also, why might my ovary be attached to my uterus? Can fibroids and these types of problems cause bowel interference?? Thank you in advance x
