Intermittent Bleeding Between Cycles, Spotting, Bloating, Severe Pelvic, Back Pain, Nausea, Gas, Constipation. Pelvic Exam, Trans-vaginal, Ct Scan Normal. Family History Of Ovarian Cancer. What Could This Be?
I m 38. Always had a regular period. Then in August started bleeding between periods. Made an appt for routine pelvic exam in jan. couldn t get me in til march. Nothing was found. Sent me for a transvaginal because I complained of spotting, bloating , severe pelvi, severe back pain , gas, nausea, and constipation. They found a cyst. Said it wouldn t cause the pain. All labs were normal. Sent for a ct scan yesterday,came back normal. For over three months, the pain is almost daily, worse in the evening, after doing normal routine, and I m at a loss. What do you suppose it is. Any answer would be greatly appreciated. Also, there is a high risk of cancer on my moms side. Bothe aunts with uterine, and ovarian, and a grandmother who has battled breast cancer three times! Please help
