Morning Drizzle, but Clearing later| Dimmed |
| My very first cyst I remember feeling dropped me to the floor crying because it would cause my ovary to twist a bit. It wasn't constant, but I usually knew when I had a big one because if I did anything it would hurt. During my fertility treatments it was insane seeing all the big cystic follicles in my ovaries lol |

| dimmy, no i dont have a reg OB, took over a year just to get an apt with the first and only one ive ever seen to talk about sterilization and she was awful, im on a wait list to see another but its been a while lol and no i havent heard of it red! but will look into it! they were all confirmed UTIs, other then 3 years ago i got a UTI and double kidney infection , and then my last one that i was sure was the same (something with kidneys or UTI) ended up being negative but no tests were done to see what it actually was |

| Omg dimmy I could not imagine that. I was super lucky with my periods until I got a 5cm cyst. I’ve got another one now, albeit a bit smaller. The only birth control I’ve been on other than the pills is the bar. It literally made me bald 🥲 I hope you’re in a better situation now tho <3 has the IUD helped with those symptoms? |
| Dimmed |
| My meds threw me because it's not what my body needed I think. They were treating the wrong thing |

| dimmy - oh that gets me aaaaangry. those are no freakin' joke and everyone shows symptoms differently |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| Have you heard of interstitial cystitis mellow? Would it be worth to look into that. Or is it like a confirmed uti each time? |
| Dimmed |
| Do you have a regular OB? When I was 18? I told my normal doctor that I want to be checked for it and she absolutely refused. Because "if you had PCOS you would have facial hair". Meanwhile I was bleeding for 1-3 months straight with 1-2 months between each "period". I had been on BC pills starting around 11 when they found a big cyst on my ovary. Yet that wasn't good enough lol |

| urhg, my meds they had put me on just knocked me out, id sleep for 18 hours straight at some points and my mom kept me home from school for a while , and i was like you know what, id rather learn to cope with what im feeling then just sleep this off lol |

| That’s good the IUD helped Dimmy :) I’m the opposite tho, I feel insane if I don’t take my meds. But everyone is different |
| MellowMares |
| dimmy, im pretty sure i have PCOS as well, but i cant find a doctor in my area that knows about it / can give me a diagnosis for it :') |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| That’s crazy. Glad you were able to advocate for yourself and get a second opinion <3 I hope you’re all good now |
| Dimmed |
| Oof meds are so tricky. I was put on ADHD meds as a kid but it turns out I had bipolar and unspecified depression linked to my PCOS that nobody ever wanted to acknowledge. Those meds made me feel the worst. I haven't had issues with depression in years after getting married and moving out. It's hard to say if it was hormonal or situational, but I also started an IUD around that time which helped with the PCOS symptoms |
| MellowMares |
| red, youd think :') but that was before i knew how to advocate for myself , luckily i did ask for a second opinion / see a dif doc , which they did all the testing with no issues, but i regret not reporting him and dont know what happened with him after that |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| I did that questionnaire thing so many times when I first started therapy... I could practically answer them all with my eyes closed |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| No they were horrible haha I can’t stand jelly beans now as an adult |
