Do you have any other symtoms Chrissy. They can include but are not limited to

  • * Extremely painful (or disabling) menstrual cramps; pain may get worse over time
    * Chronic pelvic pain (includes lower back pain and pelvic pain)
    * Pain during or after sex
    * Intestinal pain
    * Painful bowel movements or painful urination during menstrual periods
    * Heavy menstrual periods
    * Premenstrual spotting or bleeding between periods
    * Infertility (not being able to get pregnant)


I was on the pill when i was diagnosed, so the only symptom I had was painful sex (would be in tears 9 times out of 10) before being on the pill I would have really painfull menstrual cramps, so bad I would pass out from the pain, but going on the pill eased that. I was only diagnosed when a week after being hospitalised for suspected appendicitis I demanded an u/sound and they found a burst ovarian cyst.
