very personal question....maybe TMI??

This may be too personal but I need some advice or maybe someone who has gone through the same thing...

Let me start by saying that I do have a doctors appointment in 2 weeks but im deathly afraid of what they are going to tell me...

I have never been 'regular' and believe it or not also have never been to a gyno

I KNOW, I KNOW...I am sooooooooo bad but I have such a fear of any doctors that I have to be deathly sick before I even go for antibiotics..

Anyway, when i say not regular I mean maybe at most...I skip two months but now I havent gotten 'flo' since the beginning of feb

I have pains in my stomach all the time and although I sometimes feel like it is coming...nothing. I have tried everything..all those old school remedies..wine, asprin, hot baths, heating pad..but nothing.

And yes I have been stressed lately but I truly dont think thats all. When I do have it..cramps are awful along with the backaches and mood swings...
I have never been on the pill and dont want to start now, so I was wondering..has anyone ever had this problem that has been to the doc?? I am so afriad of what they are going to tell me...so I thought maybe the wonderful ladies here could shed some light first...but please be honest...thank you so much!

I don't have this problem, but it sounds like endometriosis.

Re: very personal question....maybe TMI??

make sure you have a good recommendation for a GYN...you want to make sure they have a good bedside manner...

I have a few recs if you need...

I hope that everything is OK

Well, it could be nothing, but it could also be endometriosis, or possibly PCOS. The only way to is to go to the dr.
Make sure you tell them it's your first time with a gyn, and I'm sure they will be extra gentle.

Good luck, and DON'T stress. No matter what the outcome is, you WILL be fine.

Noreen - Just sending you big hugs, and get yourself to the Dr ! Everything will be fine!
Go to a woman, if that will make you feel more comfortable.

Re: very personal question....maybe TMI??

I was just thinking the same thing!!! Have you taken a HPT???? This sounds awfully familiar.

But you definitely need to SEE THE DOCTOR ASAP!! If you are PG, you need to get on pre-natals & be checked out. Don't be afraid, there are so many good ob/gyn's. someone can recommend you to one if you need, but please don't wait any more!

Hope everything's ok! Let us know! Hugs!!!
