Hi everyone,
I've been reading everyone's posts and supportive comments which has given me the courage to join and seek support myself (I have anxiety and am also trying to be more 'upfront with my feelings).
I've been having irregular menses for a few months now and my blood tests and smear have all come back clear (the doc thought it could be peri-menopause; it runs in the family- no cancer/HPV phew!) I am 33 with no children and was starting to try for a baby. I've been finishing one period and then starting another a few days later- which has put that back now until we know what the cause is. I'm becoming very anaemic and my moods are all over the place, as you can imagine.
I have an ultrasound booked in for mid-May but, to be honest, I'm freaking out a bit. After reading some information on the NHS website I am assuming that the next logical explanation is fibroids. However, because I still want kids my options are more limited for treatment.
Can anyone who may be in a similar situation to me please give me some information on what to expect going forwards? I know you don't have a crystal ball, but I'm anxious to know about some 'real-life' examples for what could happen and recovery times, what else it could be- if not fibroids. I think the not knowing is driving me a bit batty, right now.
Apologies if you feel you have already answered this multiple times for other people. I am incredibly appreciative of any advice or information you can give me.
Kindest regards.
