Weight gain, painful bloating/cramps, acne with uterine polyp?

I've been having problems with heavy periods, bleeding between periods, after sex, etc for over a year now.

A year ago I went to an OB/GYN who did several ultrasounds suspecting that I had polyps or fibroids and after the 3rd ultrasound she said that I didn't. Symptoms didn't go away, and over the last year I've steadily gained weight, developed acne in my t-zone and around my mouth, and am permanently uncomfortably bloated.

Finally went to another OBGYN yesterday and she said she could see what she thought was a polyp. She wants me to go back as soon as my period ends to confirm.

Stupidly Grin, I've been googling polyp symptoms and none of them mention acne, bloating, weight gain or constant cramps. Has anyone else experienced those? Or am I a freak.

Had similar symptoms went to see a doc had an allergy test turns out I was allergic to wheat, yeast and eggs. Have cut down on these foods and feel better now.

Ok. I think my issue is related to the polyp my OBGYN found. I've never had food issues before.
