I'm 22, went on BC when I was 17 because of horrendously heavy, irregular periods which had become as frequent as twice a month (one week bleeding, next week not, that kind of frequency). I was last on depo-provera for about a year, I had my last injection in September 2015. Not long after me and DH decided we wanted to ttc. However as soon as the depo was supposed to wear off my horrendous twice monthly periods returned. Currently not in UK, visited gynae and she said that would want to wait until September 2016 before doing full bloods and fertility investigations in case the depo hasn't completely worn off yet, but she did refer me for a transvaginal ultrasound. Had ultrasound, everything is fine apart from small ovarian cyst which could be blocking a tube but dr said wasn't sure. Has suggested I return in 2 months for another scan at the start of my cycle to have it checked again - I assume this is to see if it has gone itself or not, and also maybe to see if the cyst is bleeding itself and therefore actually an endometrioma? I know even if that tube IS blocked the other one is fine so I wouldn't be infertile just for that reason, and surely having a cyst doesn't explain why I bleed soo heavily and so often? Ugh I am just so anxious and upset about it all and I know this is all only the start!
