I went to see my doctor today and I return with information, some of which might be useful to you! Here is my FTMKickstart vid: www.youtube.com and here is Ben’s video: www.youtube.com
What started out as a fairly common procedure (minimally-invasive hysterectomy and pelvic reconstruction), turned into a Stage IIIc ovarian cancer diagnosis. Marty’s experience from early on through the cancer surgery and now into remission has been the perfect example of Aurora coordinated care with great outcomes. To make sure your doctor is an Aurora doctor and to receive all the benefits of coordinated care, visit aurora.org/findmydoctor or call 1-888-863-5502.
I’m a woman in my mid 40′s with no kids. I have never been to a women’s doctor. But lately I’ve been concerend. My mom had a hysterectomy when she was in her 30′s, my sister had cancerous tumors removed last year from her ovaries, my great aunt had ovarian cancer, my mom also had a hormonal breast cancer and my grandmother had some cancer (not sure which kind though). I don’t really have any symptoms but I was just wondering with all this in my family if I have a right to be concerned. I finally made an appointment to see a doctor next week. Plus I’m very overweight. Thank you.
I’m only 19 and I found out I have PCOS and yaz is the cure. pcos also causes high testosterone and yaz corrects that too. While on yaz my acne completely clears up my cramps disappear and my boobs slightly enlarged…The major down fall is its causing really bad side effects. I’m been having severe mood swings that are causing problems in my everyday life and panic attacks…I don’t know what to do. I want to keep taking it because it helps some problems but it also creates it’s own problems. Is there any way to fix the mood swings???
I should mention Ive been on yaz before to correct the pcos a few months ago but i stopped taking it then because of the mood swings. they went away about a month after being off of it. I went back on because of the pcos. pcos is polycystic ovarian syndrome and not treated it could lead to me being infertal. My mom had to have a hysterectomy at 28 because hers got so bad. I also really like the pil because it lowers my testosterone thus getting rid of my acne.
I know I just asked this. haha. I just really want help. I’m a 19 year old with high testosterone and pcos…I don’t know what to do. xD
Is it possible for one to have both ovarian cysts and appendicitis? Also if pain in the appendix area has been felt over the course of a couple weeks wouldn’t it be impossible for it to go as long as two weeks before it becomes inflammed and needing to be removed. Over this last few months I had one night where I thought it was my appendix but the symptoms went away. I noticed symptoms again about two weeks ago on and off.
Will an ultrasound show abmormalities on the appendix if it has a good chance of becoming inflammed or rupturing?
If a gynecologist prescribes an ultrasound to check for ovarian cysts can the same one be used to check the appendix or does the patient have to see a different type of doctor such as gastroenterologist to find out about the appendix?
I know that no treatment or surgery is done for ovarian cysts but is for appendicitis so I’m trying to find out if it’s worth seeing two different types of doctors or just go to one and hope that the appendix is still o.k. even if ovarian cysts are present.
I was diagnosed with ovarian cysts about five years after hysterectomy even though I didn’t have symptoms & doctor ordered kept an eye on the cysts with updated ultrasounds with the last ultrasound about three years ago. The cysts got small enough and I didn’t need further ultrasounds.
One doctor I didn’t like or agree with said to get my ovaries removed because of the history of cysts and he wouldn’t help me with why I went in there (complication from hysterectomy) and Ithink he was just trying to get more money (the wait was over 3 hours in his office).3 other doctors agreed to not take out my ovaries including my surgeon if it wasn’t cancerous as it could prevent me from going into surgical menopause. I wish there was a procedure to remove take out the cysts without removing the ovaries.
I have Adenomyosis (endometriosis that has entered my uterine walls: heavy bleeding, lots of clots, VERY painful periods). Last month I had an ovarian cyst rupture that caused ALOT of pain. My doc has said only cure for adenomyosis is birth control pills, which I am not willing to go on because I had a friend die from a blood clot caused by birth control pills…..or a hysterectomy. He can also remove my ovaries at the same time to prevent me from having future cysts rupture. Just wondered if anyone has had the same issues, and what you’ve done to fix the situation. If I do the ovaries too, then I’ll have to do hormone therapy for the next 12 or so years until I’m 50.
