Can anyone help me figure this out? I’ve posted this before but didn’t get any replies.
I have been experiencing abnormal bleeding for a few months now. The bleeding is always at the same time between periods, and accompanied by dull, uncomfortable pain in my abdomen, on the right side or middle.
The hospital have tested me for pregnancy and infections, but they were negative, and I had an exam yesterday. Unfortunately the exam had to be cut short and ultimately wasn’t completed, as I experienced severe pain (tearing, burning sensation) and began bleeding quite heavily once the speculum was inserted. The doctor asked if it was normal for me to bleed once my cervix had been touched, which I said it wasn’t, and she stepped out to speak to her seniors.
I’ve been booked in for a scan next week, and the hospital are looking into a laparoscopic procedure. The doctor mentioned all sorts like polyps, fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS, and asked for my family history of cancer (I have had relatives with ovarian cancer, breast cancer and abnormal cervical cells).
I’m 26, and up in a heap over this. I’m in pain and still somewhat spotting today from the exam.
