Another new Gino?!
Question: I have had ovarian cysts since i was 16 im now 18. My old Gino was crap, all she done was passed me around to other ginos in her department.
So i now have a new one, i have my first appointment with her at the end of this month as well as some more scans.
Thing is i didnt have a period for 5 and 1/2 months and recently had one, my scan will probobly come out fine. And she will say i cant see nothing wrong (they do this all the time). But my GP is certan i have PCOS, because of the constant cysts ect.
If she does say theres nothing wrong and tells me to come back if i get worse, what can i do? I know something isnt right i go so long without periods, i have unbareable tummy pain to the point i have been rushed to hospital or i cant get out of bed for days. I am always moody and when the doctors pass me around this realy doesnt help!
so if she says i cant see nothing wrong without actuly testing a thing (ive had this before) what can i do? can i demand further tests?

i think you probablies have endometriosis as well by the sounds of it ask them to do a laperoscopy dont give up till they do it that will show up whats wrong pcos normally makes you a little bit over weight you could have both but a lap will tell you whats wrong
yes you should be able to demand more test or try going to a Dr. that deals more with this issue. They should already have done these test if they know you've had this problem for two years now... Good luck
pco is a good explination i would say go ill you get your diagnosis to a million docs if you have to however pcos is an endocrinone disorder
