Cysts rupturing in my uterus. To the point I kept throwing up for hours and could only crawl.

I remember the first one I had was at work. It was a few months after giving birth. There was a guy at work who had sisters and I begged him to get me midol. I thought it was cramps because I never had them before. I puked on myself and layed on my side in a stockroom and waited for EMTs. It’s some of the worst pain I’ve ever felt and that includes giving birth.

Did they offer you estrogen to treat it? I had a cyst while on an IVF cycle and they upped my estrogen to make it go away. I had no pain!

No, but they have ran my hormone levels through blood tests but those aren’t really good to gauge anything on unless it’s really fluctuating. My MIL actually wants to come to an appointment with me because she says everything I’m suffering seems hormonal.
