Just really fed up as have had weird gynae symptoms for months and can't get it taken seriously by any GP because my last smear (3 years ago) was normal, I had a transvaginal ultrasound in March last year which was clear and I'm young (27).
Symptoms are:
- mid cycle bleeding which I KNOW is not just ovulation bleeding as it's dark brown and goes on for days and days. I'm currently on day 6 of it and it's enough that I have to wear a panty liner.
- period pain AFTER my period has ended. Like clockwork, 2 days after the end of my period I get 2-3 days of strong period pain.
- constant recurrent episodes of cystitis (I've suffered with this for many year)
All the above has been an issue since the birth of my son 2 years ago. I thought perhaps endometriosis but my GP said no as otherwise I would have had fertility problems.
Obviously I am terrified of cancer (I do suffer from anxiety). I am thinking of going to see a private gynae.
Any thoughts? Does it sound like it could be endometriosis?
I'm not on hormonal contraceptives.
