How were you diagnosed?

Good morning lovely glow ladies. So last week I had an ultrasound for right sided pelvic pain that has been coming and going for a few months. The ultrasound shows my right ovary is perfect, however my left ovary is enlarged and I have a 3 cm lesion on it. My endometrium is also extremely thickened. I’m scheduled to get an MRI for further imaging this coming week.

I was a late bloomer, I didn’t get my period until almost 15. But once I started getting them they’ve always been at least 7 days long. Sometimes 9-10 if you count spotting the day before and after. I always joke and say I didn’t get boobs until I was 23. Coincidentally that’s when all my symptoms started to worsen. Over the last few years my periods have gotten so much worse. My flow has gotten very heavy, and my cramps the first 2-3 days are unbearable. I also have mid cycle pain that lasts from ovulation into my period every mom that. I went to an obgyn in the fall and expressed this change to her and she told me to go on BC. She wanted me to get an IUD but hubby and I would like to start trying for a baby soon, so I refused. I tried the pills for a few months and they made me crazy 😜 I’ve never done well on bc it gives me what I call “estrogen rage” I get red hot all of a sudden and want to hulk out.

In January of this year I noticed I started lactating. I’m absolutely not pregnant. My periods the last 3 months have been wacky. Last month I was 10 days late and this month I was 4 days late. Before this period came I actually ended up in urgent care with pretty severe pelvic pain and this huge waves of nausea and dry heaves. These lasted for 3 days before my period finally started last night.

I guess I’m just looking for some advice here. If anyone has similar stories or any insight.
