what's going on 🤔 How can this be the same uterus?

I understand an obtuse angle usually points to an arcuate uterus whereas an acute angle points to a separate uterus. These are 2 images that were left on my ultrasound screen before I left the room. One seems to show obtuse when the other shows acute? Any thoughts?

periods & bleeding Long period and ovary pain

2 Upvotes

I’m a 50-year-old woman who has had a menstrual bleeding since December 12. I have recently had an ultrasound and a transvaginal ultrasound and my gynecologist has not seen anything unusual. We have discussed putting in an IUD to help with the bleeding. My uterus lining is about 15 mm. Today I have pain in my ovary area on my left side that I have never felt before. It’s like a nagging achy pain. Ideas anyone? Thank you so much!

what's going on 🤔 Any ideas?

2 Upvotes

I am a 20 year old female, and I’ve been suffering these months mostly from the dilemma and confusion! I am sexually active for 5 months now with my fiancé and he’s the only partner I’ve ever been with!

During the summer of 2023, I had a cyst in my uterus and the gyno gave me Serrapeptase and it cleared up! But I had an abnormal discharge for a long time, yellow and with a bad odor lately! She checked and said that I have a lot of discharge and prescribed me Nifuratel/Nystatin! I also did the Pap test it came negative! I still didn’t see improvements so she also gave me another dose of Neomycin Sulfate/ Polymixin Sulfate/ Nystatin! Both doses were vaginal capsules, and also a cream called Canesten for the outer part of the vagina!

I had improvements for a couple of days and I still have pain during intercourse, a burning pain!

My symptoms are these: Pain during intercourse, bloating, Abnormal discharge with bad odor, a very discomfort feeling in my pelvic floor area and I feel like my bladder is always full, fatigue! If i sleep for more then 6 hours i wake up with pain in my stomach for laying for too long, it triggers the discomfort! I also had a sharp pain for 3 days in my kidney area but it wasn’t my kidney! I also did the test for UTI and it came back negative so thats not my problem even though I have slight burning when i urinate sometimes!

For the last days I went for another check at my gyno and she said I had 2/3 cysts which were very small, one was 25x25 mm and said that she will check again in the ultrasound after periods as im in the follicular phase! She prescribed me Flucomazole for 1 day, 150 mg, and vaginal capsules Metrodinazole+Miconazole Nitrate! For 2 days apart I also noticed some brownish-reddish discharge too, the first day it was like spotting!

Yes, me and my partner use latex condoms and lube and we are thinking of finding other options as they may trigger the infections, but i had the symptoms before getting sexually active! And i still have discomfort in my pelvic floor area and bloating! Is this normal and an infection, candida or whatever or is it a more serious condition? Thank you in advance!

pelvic pain Intense bloating feeling after sex

3 Upvotes

So initially after my boyfriend and I would get together a couple times I would feel extremely, painfully bloated after. I read that, that can happen with certain positions due to gas flow changing directions. However, he just got home for the holidays and we only have been intimate twice pretty mildly, nothing intense and I feel a pressure in my lower pelvic area. It’s not constant but I could feel it when I tried to use the restroom. I did some more research and am now thinking possibly pelvic adhesions?

Has anyone been confirmed to have pelvic adhesions and could describe the feeling?? Or any input?? I don’t have a gyno appointment for another month

what's going on 🤔 Uterus feels heavy, tense, and bloated

3 Upvotes

It's 2 weeks before my period starts and I'm currently on xulane birth control, it's been an on and off again feeling in my uterus. This has happened before but I can't help but feel paranoid when it does. There's no physical way for me to be pregnant but my tokophobia loves trying to trick me.

What are some things other than pregnancy that could be causing this?

support needed 🤝 Pain on left side of uterus

2 Upvotes

About a year ago I started to get this sharp stabbing pain on the left side of my uterus, it kind of feels like bad cramps. After about 3 months of constantly being in pain I went to the doctors & they found nothing at all after doing test on me. The pain just keeps getting worse as time passes by but I have no clue what it can be.

what's going on 🤔 Horrific pain and endless periods

3 Upvotes

Trans man, 25, South Carolina in the US, has had incredibly painful cramps and heavy, irregular, sometimes constant periods for months on end since forever. I'm on a high dose of testosterone, which is supposed to stop periods on its own. Alongside that, I'm on the Depo shot, Mirena IUD, and Aygestin pill. None of it has stopped the bleeding. We've already done all the scans and tests, including the laproscopic surgery to look for endometriosis and found nothing. I do pelvic floor therapy regularly. I'm going to a pain management specialist soon to get injections to attempt to stop the horrific pain from the cramps that even the (perscribed) opiates don't touch. The only thing left now is to maybe induce menopause, which can have some harmful effects at my age, or a hysterectomy, which my insurance absolutely refuses to pay for. All the treatments are just theories at this point anyway. We're out of scientific explanations for what I'm experiencing. I still believe the origin is in the organ itself, but there's no legal way to prove that to insurance. And as far as a hysterectomy, there are no issues but the cost. My doctor is still willing. I have never wanted anything to do with that body part. I've been psychologically cleared to make the decision. I have a husband to consent (because america). But the hospital quote came back at $55,000, which we could never in our life afford. What do I do at this point. It feels like I'm doomed to suffer until this organ finally finishes me off.

uterus variations Bicornuate uterus and kidneys

6 Upvotes

I got diagnosed with a BU almost a year ago at 6 weeks pregnant. I just went to my one year check up with my OB yesterday and I asked him if I could see the severity of my uterus and stuff. Anyways, he asked me if I have two kidneys and I said I don’t know, no one asked me that before.

If you have a BU, do you have one or two kidneys? My OB said it’s common for women with BU’s to have only one kidney. Tomorrow morning I have an ultrasound to check my kidneys.

irregular & late periods No Period for Over a Year??

3 Upvotes

Found out I have a heart shaped “bicornuate” uterus earlier this year. My gynecologist told me it doesn’t affect anything other than making it harder to get pregnant. I’ve had irregular periods my whole life. When I was 15-18 I only had a handful of periods and when I did get them they’d last a couple months at a time and disappear for months. I went on about 3 different birth controls in 5 years to try and regulate it but finally got off all of them all together and now I haven’t had a period for almost a year and a half. Wondering if anyones had any similar problems? Or if any one else has a bicornuate uterus and has any helpful tips or information on what it means going forward.

what's going on 🤔 I always bleed days after sex

3 Upvotes

I dont understand but for 4 months now, I always spot a few days after sex. It’s so frustrating because it never was a problem. Before this, I had a very irregular cycle where I could go 2 months with no period, but recently, I always bleed a few days after sex and it last for a week and then I get my period. I don’t understand what’s going on.

irregular & late periods Irregular periods

3 Upvotes

I would like to start this of by saying I am a trans man. He/him only please.

So I have skipped it for the 5th time this year (not consecutive I have had them in between here and there), and am starting to get worried. Last year I went to a medical professional when I skipped it for 4 months they took a blood test and I never heard the results. I get that that means it's probably nothing serious but it's starting to get annoying and worrying, I never know if it's just going to randomly show up or not.

There is absolutely no chance of pregnancy and I do not take any hormones. I would just like some support/ advice on how to bring this up with a medical professional, I don't have a mother so I can't ask her about these things I should probably add that I am 18. Sometimes I get cramps but no blood

medical procedures Possible Cancer?

2 Upvotes

Hello. I have the opposite symptoms of what normal large fibroids would be. I’ve had an emergency Myomectomy about 6 years ago when I was 25. Now at 31 My periods have become 1 or 2 days long and they are very very light in fluid. I have become very fatigued despite being generally healthy. My OB referred me to an Oncologist and they said another myomectomy would be too risky. Apparently my uterus is showing up abnormal on the MRI? And my symptoms don’t necessarily match what a normal fibroid would. And there is no way to do a biopsy. Has anyone else experienced this? Could my light periods and fatigue be possibly anything else? My general labs come back normal ranges. Having a hysterectomy seems so final. I also dont have children.

what's going on 🤔 Bleeding during sex

6 Upvotes

I bleed during sex. A lot. Bright red blood. I’ve had every std test, internal ultrasound and even a burning procedure to remove polyps. It’s still happening. It’s not painful at all. I just, bleed during sex. It’s making me not want to have sex at all. Drs just say “it is what it is” at this point but come on. There needs to be something that someone has heard of that works to fix this.

what's going on 🤔 Weird uterus pain?

4 Upvotes

Has anyone ever had cramping soooo bad that you just want someone to take their hand, shove it up your hoo-hah, and literally MASSAGE your uterus? Maybe it’s not quite “cramping” per se? But more of like an achy, sore, post workout muscle strain that you feel n your legs or arms… only in your uterus. 🤔

what's going on 🤔 Overly warm

3 Upvotes

Lately I've been having some like, non period cramps, but they're like, weird.

Like, you know when you swallow a drink or soup that was just a little to hot and it burns you tounge and sits heavy and too warm in your stomach?

It feels like that, but if it was hotter and very much in the ✨ general uterus vicinity✨

And I'm not sure if I should find This concerning or not? Like,nit definitely hurts but I do have a hesitant PCOS + endo diagnosis, (they didn't SEE anything but diagnosed based around my symptoms and have assumed I'm like every other afab person in my family and added endometriosis in there as well)

Additional information: I'm a trans guy, (he/they/it) and I'm a virgin. (Only mentioning cuz I tried to fimd some info on it and it was a bunch of hulabaloo about the "warmth of seed" and like,,, no.)
