Very confused 47 yr old ( haha )

I’ll try to make a very long story short as possible I have severe endometriosis past few years after being diagnosed and having cyst removed and partial fallopian and ovary tube removed I went into forced peri menopausal ? What I’m confused about is I haven’t had a period since the 1st of May and I have quite a large belly for my size ? Could I be pregnant?? I know it sounds silly but it’s been 90 days and I probably should do a test but I couldn’t possibly be pregnant ?? Could I ?

Only one way to find out x

I guess you'll have to do a test to find out!

You can have ovulation without periods especially at the start of puberty and at the start of meonopause. Even with hormones to bring on menopause we can still have the odd ovulation it's why nothings 100% effective.

Wowzers I know your scared but it’s worth checking. Your going to constantly worry till you know. The only thing I would say is that your belly won’t be that big at 3 months. Possibly could be another cyst growing so it’s worth checking the obvious first.

Good luck xx

I don’t mean it’s huge but I’m 47 I’ve had children so I know that I’m not going to be that big at three months but it does seem when I sit down or move it just feels quite solid so maybe it could be a cyst. ? Do you know what’s quite sad is I’ve been under Endo specialists and my doctors but because of my age and my Endo has reduced quite a lot because of the menopausal symptoms and irregular periods I don’t really seem to get a listened to so this is why I result to asking people that have endometriosis because they might be a bit more in the know😜 x
