Arcurate Uterus and a Larger Ovary

So I had an abdominal scan and found out I have a slight dip in my uterus. She also said my right ovary is bigger than my left. Weird thing is no fibroids or cysts were found - which I actually expected the latter to be found. She said it's nothing to worry about and then proceeded to tell me (despite me being in pain for almost 10 years) 'sometimes it's just stress' at which that point I wanted to hang up.

Has anyone had this before? I know it's not stress and totally believe it could be endo as we have ruled out hormonal issues like PCOS. I've been given folic acid to take for four months as my levels were low but I would love some advice.

Is this likely to be endo? What should I do now given COVID19 has stopped everything?

I don't want to sound selfish but I can get pain outside of my period, like abdominal pain, perinium pain, shoulder pain and restless legs. It makes me take time off work and I've had enough. Thanks!

Ultra sound doesn’t tend to show endo, have you asked GP for referral

Yeah I know but with COVID going on I can't get a lap

Unfortunately a referral can take weeks, unless private, could start the process. The private hospitals are going to start helping NHS with ops, this should help overall and possibly speed things up, can only hope
