I'm seeing a gynaecologist today. The pain has been quite severe in my left pelvis and back radiates to my hip. I have alot of stomach bloating too. Something doesn't seem right. I saw the Gnae consultant.
He advised an "urgent" MRI scan and appeared very concerned with my symptoms. Try not to worry I was the same everything seemed to be very quick I went from scan to surgery in 6 weeks and still hopeful my biopsies will be ok. It's the waiting and not knowing that drives you insane. Let me know how it goes will keep fingers crossed x.
Did you have a cyst? And why did they do surgery? I thought biopsy results usually take a few days x. I explained but also said I'd had previous hysterectomy and prolapse surgeries and wasn't sure if the pain was connected to which she said that her report would be going immediately to go and to expect a referral to gynaecologist as may be a cyst.
The next day I had a call to see gynae on the Tuesday which felt like forever when there he held the mass in his hands which shocked me as I hadn't really noticed it but did have all the bloating, back pain etc. I was told I would be discussed at MDT and would need surgery I asked him did he think cancer he said we will talk more next week. I hope your results are normal hun.
How old are you if you don't mind me asking? My biggest fear is infertility as I'm 36 and not married yet. I'm 43 and had my hysterectomy at 39 I already have children and was sterilised before I had to make decisions so I totally understand how worried you are. I joined a group on Facebook for ovarian cysts and have seen many that have managed to go on to have successful pregnancies. Even those with the dreaded C diagnosis. Me too, im 35, no children. I was hoping to try this year but something isn't right at all.
Constantly bloated like I need to push my tummy out, left ovary pain and terrible lower back ache. Hi I was just reading and your symptoms sound so similar to mine. Did you have any tests and results yet? I've always had little niggles in my right side which I put down to either my endometriosis or pcos however since around 6 weeks ago I get this awful pain in my right side and it hurts all in my hip and lower back it's so bad that even when I sit on the toilet it feels like I have a really bad dragging feeling all in the right side of my abdomen.
Each of these conditions causes a variety of cysts to form on the ovaries, which may, in turn, lead to swelling. The cysts that form from these conditions may require surgical removal. Ultimately, it will depend upon analysis from a medical professional.
Untreated side effects can have negative impacts on your overall health and your fertility. In some rare cases, tumors can make one ovary larger than the other. Statistically speaking, the chances of cancerous tumors are very rare. Only approximately 22, individuals are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year.
Often, though, a swollen ovary is one of the first indicators of ovarian cancer, making it important that you consult a medical professional if you have concerns. When you consult a doctor, he or she will often ask you a variety of questions to determine the root cause of the problem.
As stated, the chances of cancerous tumors are relatively low. However, they are possible—and untreated swelling may allow cancer to spread. Therefore, the doctor will ask preliminary questions and perform basic examinations to determine if further testing is necessary.
Unexplained swelling in any part of the body can come across as somewhat concerning initially. Any prolonged discomfort should be investigated by a medical professional, if possible.
An examination can help rule out potential health issues and allow doctors to make a treatment plan that focuses on eliminating and reducing negative symptoms of ovarian cysts and swelling. In most cases, swelling comes as a side effect of normal health issues that hundreds of thousands of women experience. Therefore, treatment options are available to help alleviate these symptoms. All the same, swelling in the ovaries is normally no reason for alarm and often will resolve itself on its own, without medical intervention.
At times, this can be a side effect of a medical emergency, such as a twisted ovary. If you are not in excessive pain or experiencing other severe side effects, you likely have minimal reason to worry. Ovulation is when an ovary releases an egg for fertilization. During ovulation, the ovaries can become hyperstimulated by hormones and may temporarily enlarge. PCOS is a common condition in which a hormonal imbalance causes small cysts to develop on the ovaries.
People with PCOS may experience irregular periods and might find it difficult to get pregnant, as the ovaries may not release eggs regularly. PCOS can also cause weight gain and excess hair growth on the body. This rare condition occurs when fluid builds up in the ovarian tissue. Most of the time, ovarian edema occurs in only one ovary.
Ovarian edema may occur due to partial ovarian torsion, which blocks the blood flow and prevents lymph fluid from draining. As a result, fluid builds up, and the ovary enlarges. Ovarian torsion refers to the ovary becoming partially or fully rotated around the supporting tissues. It is a medical emergency.
Ovarian torsion cuts off the blood flow to the ovary and can cause significant nausea, pelvic pain, and vomiting. It requires prompt surgery to correct the rotation and restore blood flow. The ovaries are subject to several types of benign, or non-cancerous, growths or cysts.
These include mature cystic teratomas, fibrothecomas, and cystadenoma. Ovarian cancer occurs when cancerous cells grow on the ovaries. It is more common after menopause. A biopsy can definitively diagnose the disease. Ovaries may look enlarged during pregnancy due to a luteoma. A luteoma is a benign growth on the ovary that only occurs during pregnancy.
Doctors are not sure why some women develop luteomas while others do not, but they believe that the increased hormone levels during pregnancy may play a role.
