eek i'm kinda scared. i've been having pain in my left ovary for the past few months at various times. i just finished my period a couple days ago and i've been experiencing some pretty bad pain since then. the area is visibly swollen and it feels really sore, especially when pressure is applied to it. the pain is pretty dull usually but it hurts really bad when i move certain ways or press on the area. anyways i don't think all this is completely normal and i think that mostlikely, i have polycystic ovaries, meaning they have a tendency to form liquid-filled cysts after ovulation, which usually resolve themselves. it's not really a big deal unless the cysts are blood-filled, so it may not be a big problem. if the symptoms remain the same as they are now, then i could probably deal with it for my whole life. however, i'm just worried that the pain will start getting worse, since it has been doing that over recent months. and... well, my family has a history of ovarian, kidney, and lung cancer. i know i'm young and not too unhealthy, but after everything with Steel, i think it's expected that i would worry about cancer being an issue. so even though it may resolve itself, i think i'm going to ask my mom to schedule an appointment with an ob/gyn (or at least our family doctor), just to be safe. so yeah, i'm kinda worried about all this but i'll stay positive and see what happens after i see a doctor...

it's probably not your left ovary, it's probably your colon. especially if you're stressed. poop more.

send me your Poop in a plastic bag..!

i thought i was logged out then but no-one has posted since I last looked

she's not coming back. the last administration change chased her away. and climbtree's right, it's probably the colon or some other organ close to the surface

only a moron would think this is a good idea

So big brother is now a hive mind.

i'm fairly certain it's ovarian cysts. apparently my sister and many of my cousins have all had cysts-- my sister had surgery last year to get some of them removed or drained. eghh how pleasant... anyways, it's more likely for women to have pelvic/side pain due to ovary problems rather than colon. the swollen appearance could be from lymph nodes. or i might have endometriosis, which is the most common cause of pelvic pain in teenage girls--however i don't have the other symptoms of it like irregular bleeding and whatnot, so i don't think it's likely for me. hmm probably ovarian cysts, which isn't usually a big deal... but i'm concerned because i have symptoms like swelling, gas, and dull pain aside from the sharp pain that occurs with pressure. anyways, i have a doctor appointment on tuesday so i'll see what happens but i guess after all this stuff with Steel and with family members, it's only natural for me to be worrying so much about lumps and bumps and pains.

dumb question but, have you been to a doctor?

Attention Dr. Martini, calling Dr. Martini in the emergency room

no not yet i'm going on tuesday. my mom took a look at me though and i talked with my sister, who has had surgeries due to ovarian cysts. oh and i have been reading about it online. obviously i can't know anything for sure until i go to the doctor but i'm thinking it is likely ovarian cysts and that's what i'm hoping for too.

uhhhhhhh still head to the doctor or whatever just in case but if it's just a pain in your left side where you think your ovaries are it's way way more likely to be colon problems. especially if your symptoms are swelling, gas, and dull pain (aside from the sharp pain that occurs with pressure)

also esiann rarely internets anywhere it wasn't the admin changes DON'T WORRY ASE

also i just remembered you said this

anyways i don't think all this is completely normal and i think that mostlikely, i have polycystic ovaries, meaning they have a tendency to form liquid-filled cysts after ovulation, which usually resolve themselves.

if you've got PCOS that's not really how it works. are you on the pill?
