Post Partum Polycystic OvariesFrom: Amy (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sun, 17 Jun 2001 12:48:39 -0500 (CDT)
I had a TV ultrasound Thurs bc I have had right lower quadrant pain for 3 months. The RE that did my ultrasound didn't see a large cyst, but both ovaries were polycystic. I have a few questions: 1. How did my ovaries become polycystic while I was pregnant/breast feeding? Both of those conditions surpresss ovulation, right? If they were polycystic pre-pregnancy could they have stayed that way during pregnancy? 2. Before I became pregnant, I has intermittantly irregular cycles (3 normal then I'd miss one, 3 normal etc. I had between 8 and 10 periods/year). I knew the one I missed were probably anovulatory, but no one--even the RE we saw said anything about PCOS being a possibility. I got pregnant after 3 years with no interventions. Is PCOS something I should be tested for? I'm not obese. I don't show signs of histurism/adrogney. 3.What causes regluar, although not constant, anovulation other than PCOS? 4. Can Polycystic ovaries cause pain? The RE said no. The GYN that referred me for the ultrasound said a laproscopy was the next step, but he doesn't do surgery any more so he referred me to his parnter. I called for an appointment and can't get one until AUGUST 31! I can't live with this pain any more. Any ideas on what to do next? Thank you in advance for your help.
