I am the first to admit, I over analyze most situations/ things in life. I am trying not to do that now. I just got back from the doctor, and the had me schedule a pelvic ultrasound to confirm a possible cyst on my right ovary.
To give a little backstory, I have been off birth control since June-July, and as a result, have not had a period since the. Let me tell you, I did not want to go back to any semblance of my original cycle/mood swings, but due to insurance not wanting to count my exam I had in May as my annual since it was 2 months too early, I chose not to schedule my annual, which led to my prescription to lapse.
The past few weeks to a month intermittently, I have been having pain/discomfort going between my right ovary and my pubic bone. Over the past few days, it has increased in frequency, so I finally scheduled an appointment. The nurse practitioner was nice, a little too firm to that sensitive of an area, but thorough none the less. She recommended in schedule a pelvic ultrasound to confirm that there is a cyst. I was okay with it, but then after the appointment my brain starts churning the information around. And then after I let my mom know what was recommended, she asked if I wanted her to go with me, which sends my brain into overdrive. has anyone out there had to have one of these done for a similar reason? Should I be nervous/panicking?
