Hi All
i'm completely out of my mind with worry. i went to the doctors last feb with lower rightsside pain, heavy periods, bloating struggling to go to the poo during ovulation etc. i'm 50 but still had periods. Had an internal and external scan which was clear. But the pain continued so went to a private gynaecologist. she then put me on the pill which helped. stopped the bloating, heavy periods. however my periods then lasted for 17 odd days which was annoying although light. in december my GP started try the mirena coil. which has worked well, although still have light periods. However the the pain started to return along with weight gain and now constipation. i had another scan friday where two cysts where found 5.5cm and 4cm one on each ovary. i've now been told to have a CA125 test, depending on the result i will either have an urgent or routine appointment. i've booked in again privately to see the gynaecologist. the test is tomorrow. i'm completely worried sick, i've read the sysmptom of OC and constipation is listed as a very common system. i've also had melanoma skin cancer recently which puts me a higher risk. i'm so worried about this results of this test. Anyone had constipation and benign cysts x
