Had results but said they’re not cause of my pain

(21F) I’ve had a weird pelvic pain on my left side that comes on sometimes since last year. It recently got worse and occasionally would radiate down my leg so I got it checked out, and was referred for an ultrasound. I had a pelvic one and transvaginal ultrasound and it came back that I have numerous 'follicular size cysts' on my left ovary - but this apparently isn't the cause for my pain? 

They also said pcos should be considered but offered no tests to confirm and said if it was I would have lack of periods (which I have had anyway) acne and facial hair.

All I got for the results was this information in a text message. No follow up call or anything - so I don't know what to do now. The pain is now mainly in my left thigh constantly and I’m still really scared :( I don't know what to do now! I hate calling the doctors as it is but it feels like they've just left me in the dark and said 'we found nothing, have a nice day'. I’m still worried it could be something bad :(

  • Hi love, your story is so similar to mine. In 2015 i was diagnosed with pcos. I have since gone on to have 3 children. In the last year my left ovary has caused me so much pain which often does travel down my left thigh. I went for a scan on the 11th october, and recieved a letter to book an appointment with my gp. I have my appointment today to see what is going on. My periods are a mess! The pain i have now is a dull achy cramp if that makes sense.

    If you dont mind il figure out how and give you a private message later on today when ive had my results.

     

    Hope you get sorted soon x

  • Hiya, thank you so much that would be really helpful! the pain i have is dull and achey too, sometimes gets slightly worse but it's never unbearable just very uncomfortable. I hope your appointment went well today :) x
