Advice

Hello all, 

 

I am wanting a little bit of advice. I have recently past few months been getting issues with my periods which have been spotting and irregular. . I had blood test done and they show I have PCOS. I've been getting alot of the symptoms for this. So I have been referred for a ultrasound. Which I attended yesterday. So I'm there and he's doing the ultrasound taking a few pictures of my lower stomach, and then he said he needs to do an internal ultrasound whilst I was there. So I said is this because you have seen something? And he replied yes, and he will tell me afterwards. So I'm there having the internal one and all seems abit awkward and quiet. Took a while as he was taking lots of images. So, then he asks me if I've ever had surgery before? And I reply no, so then my mind starts to go on over drive by this point thinking what the hell is wrong with me! He then finished, but wouldn't tell me anything. I'm very worried now Incase there is more than PCOS. Does anyone have same experiences when being tested? Or is it just me? 
 

thanks, Hannah 

  • Hi Hannah,

    I can understand this could be a little unsettling particularly as you weren't able to find out more at the time, although it's normal for the person doing the ultrasound to not be able to give any results.

    All I can really say is to try not to worry too much until you find out more. I know this is easier said than done and so I hope it's not too long to wait before you get the results.

    Meanwhile if anyone here has any similar experiences then hopefully they'll be along soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
