What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain,irregular Menstruation And Brownish Vaginal Discharge?
Hi Doc, I have been having mild right side lower abdomen pain past 2 months, irregular periods and brown discharge between periods and abdominal bloating the last 6 weeks or so. I had a baby via csect nearly 5 months ago but these issues started after my surgery seemed to have sorted itself out. My Gp sent me for an ultrasound, showed only a small amt of fluid remaining from surgery. Had a CT scan a week later which showed a 2.5cm cyst. (Likely to be ovarian) repeated ultrasound a week later and it was not shown on it. Something isn t right but doc brushes it off. Thank you

Hello,
If you are breastfeeding your child your period may be irregular, absent or spotting may happen also. Consult your gynecologist to do a vaginal ultrasound since it is more accurate and a laparoscopy may be needed for evaluation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
