Hi ladies

Im new here and needing a little advice. For the past several months I've noticed bloody looking skin in my pads I have minor pain with my period and whilst ovulating My period is quiet heavy and along with this odd looking bloody skin I have a few clots also. I have spoken to my dr who doesnt seem concerned my papsmears are up to date and are fine. I have had a transvaginal scan which come back finding Slightly bulky and anteverted uterus. Also they found multiple small cerical nabothian cysts I have had reoccurring vaginal infections such as staph, Strep B and Candida over the past several months also and have quiet a bot of discharge on a daily basis does not have an odor and is clear and occasionally will be white cloudy colour. I also suffer with bowel problems not sure if they may be linked.I suffer with extreme anxiety and really scared its not cancer sad  Any help or info would be much appreciate   thanks inadvance

    Hi

    Sorry I cant say whether its endometriosis or? I have severe endometriosis according to my gynae. I have bad constipation and found that cyst on my ovary stuck and grown into my sigmoid making it narrow which explain my difficulty emptying my bowl.

    I have two cysts on each ovaries and just found out yesterday a lady who had cysts and decreased from taking b complex and milk thistle. I have started taking it yesterday with eating organic food and veges and legumes. I feel the difference. My condition and symptom is slightly different from yours. I have had many test and smear test are clear. I suggest you keep looking on other forum you might come across someone with similar sympton to you.

    I pray too for God's direction in what to do and he has been directing me the right path.

    Best wishes

    Hi Kylie,

    Try not to think about the 'what ifs', it will fuel your anxiety and make your pain worse and periods irregular.

    I would visit your GP again and maybe suggest a laparoscopy to determine if its endo or something else. Then at least you will have piece of mind and if you do have endo, at least you know and you can start managing it ?

    Hey,

    They can do an ultra sound and look at the lining of your uterus that way to see if the lining is thick. It's a less definitive diagnosis of endometriosis but it's also less invasive than and laproscopy.

    Maybe tell your GP that you have heard of endometriosis and you want her/him to look further into it.

    I also suffer from anxiety and I found the best way to deal with the worry is to remind myself that they are "what ifs" don't spend your valuable time worying about stuff you likely will regret worrying about. You're in control of your attitude towards whatever challange comes your way. Focus your energy on that! smile

    Best of luck hon.
