OH NOW WHAT!?

My only thought is, yes you need to go to a gyn. I would call Monday at 9am and go before the end of the day.

so Im going to take provera to bleed more with the hope of stopping the bleeding... lol... doc didnt even mention anemia concerns. Im going back in 3 weeks for biopsy

had biopsy, waiting for results. took provera, had a serious period! it stopped for a day, but now im bleeding again. if my tests come back fine im not sure what to do?

Hey there! I found out I had PCOS this past spring, my final surgery was just over two years ago at that point. I had C-Diff in January so I thought I had stomach problems but NOPE! the pain was due to the cysts.
I had an IUD, which can cause more cysts, so avoid that. Also I am doing the shot now because the gyno was concerned I would not absorb birth control pills normally, which not only prevent pregnancy but help prevent cysts by regulating your hormones. Shot does the same thing but is obviously absorbed better than the pill!
Hope this helps a bit, took me about a year to figure out my problems weren't only in my intestines.

thanks for the advice. sometimes Im not sure what to do anymore and every doc I see seems to have a different opinion.

Seeing different doctors will get you different opinions. Find one that listens to you and that has given you successful treatment options, present or past. Don't give up! It takes awhile... like everything else!

Hi Kelsey and Jennifer,

The IUD causes more ovarian cysts to occur? Good Lord, I was told the OPPOSITE!! I do not definitely have PCOS, but have trouble with forming cysts on my ovaries.

I am so glad I saw this post. I just spent over an hour in the MRI machine yesterday to gauge whether it is time to go in to remove more cysts or whether I can wait it out for a while.

I had surgery in 2010 to remove a bunch and I was told to have the IUD, which I did, because it would lower the amount of cysts!

Jennifer, I agree. I have no idea why every doc seems to have a different opinion.

Thanks for the info though, I will start checking it out!
