PCOS, Severe Bleeding With Lots Of Clots, Pain In Legs And Back. Ovary And Uterus Bulky. Endometriosis ?

Hi, I have pcos and was diagnosed with this about a year ago, for the last five weeks I have been bleeding (a regular occurrence) but this time it s been very sever with rather a lot of large clots. The last week and a half I have been in significant pain, where I am unable to move and can t help but cry with pain that goes down my legs and into my back, in my left side where I believe my ovary should be, however I have had several pelvic and internal scans which can t find my left ovary. I have been told that the right ovary and my uterus is rather bulky could this be endometriosis? I am also tired, exhausted and very emotional. Just an added note there is/was no chance of pregnancy as my husband has had a vasectomy.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The heavy bleeding with cramps like you have is seen in polycystic ovaries also. Endometriosis can be ruled out only after proper investigations like ultrasound scan and MRI scan of the lower abdomen.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
