Hi,
I'm 28 years old and have been having very irregular periods. I went this last time for over 3 months without one at all, and then had it for 2 and half months straight. The bleeding was extremely heavy, and very odd. It would suddenly stop completely for a day or more, and then come back out of nowhere extremely heavily again.
I have been having extremely bad cramps.. I saw my PCP who put me on the pill to try and get it under control, and also put me on iron as I was anemic. She then sent me for an ultrasound.. The results were that my endometrial stripe is thicker than it should be, and that I also had a cyst on my left ovary.
I was referred to a gynecologist but my appointment isn't for two weeks. In the meantime the pill has slowed things down to just spotting after 11 days of taking it.. But I am still having extremely bad cramping, and pressure.
I'm wondering if this is something that I should be overly concerned with, and try to get the appointment moved up? Or am I OK to just wait the 2 weeks. Thanks.
