I had my first period when I was 11 years old and it was regular for one year. Between ages 12 and 17 it was irregular with periods every 1 to 1.5 months. In high school it became more irregular and the doctor said it is normal during high school due to study stress. After high school the same problem existed till now. I am 27 years old and I still have periods every 2 to 3 months and sometimes it is more. I used pills before and they work but I gain weight (not from eating) and sometimes if I use them for more than two consecutive cycles I start having short breaths and get tired very quick. I have tried different medications but all will have side effects such as vomiting and dizziness. I had checked for hormones, ovarian cysts,..etc. and everything looks OK. My height=5’2” and my weight is 162 lb. I have a healthy diet and even though I gain weight when I do not use pills and do not have a period. I am trying to conceive now and would like to have a regular period. Please Help.

For the last year, each month I have had problems with ovarian cysts getting too big and rupturing, and then getting me sick, I’ve had surgeries where cysts were removed from both sides, and birth control pills don’t seem to help. A week ago I went to ER with extreme pain and vomiting, and was told there are 9 little ones between the two ovaries. i know if they are small they shouldnt be bothering me, but none of the other tests done showed any problems! I now have a fever, vomiting, headache, nausea, my pelvic area hurts really bad, and now it feels like my stomach and chest are being ripped to shreds by glass!!! HELP!

So, several months ago i went to the doctor and got diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. It hasn’t gone away and the amount of symptoms has increased alot. I went on birth control but it isn’t helping. i have the following symptoms:

pressure, fullness, or pain in the abdomen
dull ache in the lower back and thighs
problems passing urine completely
weight gain
painful menstrual periods and abnormal bleeding
nausea or vomiting
breast tenderness

and then it said
If you have these symptoms, get help right away:

pain with fever and vomiting
sudden, severe abdominal pain
faintness, dizziness, or weakness
rapid breathing

and i have everything but the rapid breathing. my problem is that my mom won’t let me go anywhere to get this checked out to see what i should do. so do you think maybe going to the school nurse would help me to get this checked out further? also, any advice on what i should do? (i’m in 9th grade)

that might sound like a dumb question but with my first child i dont remember what it was like when i first got pregnant..mainly because i didnt know untill i was two months..anyway..my mom said with her second she had MAJOR cramping. she said it was hard for her to walk..and i had the same thing happen to me this morning. well i had a rather large ovarian cyst when i was about 13 (now 20) that went away with birth control pills but i decided to look up ruptured ovarian cysts and these are the syptoms the website listed…

Dull aching, or severe, sudden, and sharp pain or discomfort in the lower abdomen (one or both sides), pelvis, vagina, lower back, or thighs; pain may be constant or intermittent — this is the most common symptom
Fullness, heaviness, pressure, swelling, or bloating in the abdomen
Breast tenderness
Pain during or shortly after beginning or end of menstrual period.
Irregular periods, or abnormal uterine bleeding or spotting
Change in frequency or ease of urination (such as inability to fully empty the bladder), or difficulty with bowel movements due to pressure on adjacent pelvic anatomy
Weight gain
Nausea or vomiting
Fatigue
Increased level of hair growth
Increased facial hair or body hair
Headaches
Strange pains in ribs, which feel muscular
Bloating
Strange nodules that feel like bruises under the layer of skin
Feeling of lumps on the lower abdomen

there is a very high chance that i could be pregnant but i just dont know..

I’m a 42 year old woman who has 7 major surgeries due to ovarian cysts and ectopic pregnancies. Over the past 2 years I have been hospitalized 8 times ….twice for bowel obstructions, once for a gallbladder attack that required having my gallbladder removed, twice for colon infections & the other admissions never turned up any sort of infections or obstructions but they blamed the vomiting, diarrhea & horrible abdominal pain to adhesion’s from past surgeries.
I have been dealing with constant loose to watery stools for close to two years. I’ve tried to alter my diet but regardless what I omit or add to my diet does not change my bowel movements.

Is it possible that these adhesion’s could actually be causing the loose & watery stools? Is there anything I can do on my own or medially to end this?

I’m a reasonably thin (5′6" 135 lbs) but my abdomen frequently is very distended (To the point that I actually look like I’m pregnant!!!) and I’m constantly dealing with terrible abdominal pain.

I would very much appreciate any suggestions or advice.

Thank you!
