Hello!
I am 27. They found a cyst on my right ovary 6 years ago when I was having bladder issues around my period... It was a simple cyst and nothing was done.
I had a baby in 2019 and stopped breastfeeding last august. Since then my periods have been all over the place. My sister having endo, I went to the doctor and asked for a scan. Low and behold the simple cyst I had 6 years ago is still there and is actually a 2cm Endometrioma. Small I know, but so painful. I can feel it and I think it may be attached to my colon as that flares with it.
I can't believe it is so advanced and am trying everything I can at home naturally since there is apparently a 3 year waiting list in my area anyway...
I just saw a post about acupuncture which I will absolutely try! Apart from the pain where the cyst is, and back pain, I don't have many other symptoms. I would really like to try and get rid of the cyst as I feel everything else is manageable.
I would really love to hear some positive stories around any alternative treatments you may have chosen to use along the way?
