Ovaries: Cysts and related issues [General Discussion]
in Women's Health ·
Since this is the topic of the thread and I'm facing similar issues, I'm posting here because I honestly don't know where else to turn... I have no idea who to reach out to or even what to ask, so if anyone has experienced anything remotely like this—though I know it's unlikely—please help! Here is my story; I hope it isn't too confusing and that someone might be able to offer some insight... A few days before I was due for my period, I noticed this strange discharge that was bloody. I figured maybe my period was just coming early due to stress, but then things stalled for five days. When it finally arrived, the first day was absolutely brutal with pain, though by the second day I felt okay, and everything seemed fine for about five days after that. Following that, the discharge turned a very, very bright yellow and was quite heavy for about three days. Today, I woke up feeling normal (no discharge at all), but a few hours later, my ovaries and lower back started aching intensely—just like when I'm about to start my period, but I know I shouldn't be. Is it possible this is from having sex last night, considering we hadn't had intercourse in three weeks prior? To go back a bit further (before my period), I noticed a little lump right down low on the smooth skin (between the openings?). I thought maybe it was just a skin tear healing since we had pretty intense sex just before all of this started. Could I have been injured internally during that rough encounter, causing all this, or am I dealing with an infection or inflammation? I know everyone is different and experiences things uniquely, but please help me because I am terrified... I have an appointment with my OB-GYN, but because I'm transferring my medical records, I can't see them for another week. I don't know what to do until then, and the anxiety is driving me crazy.😢.....please help me....
