Any ladies feel ovarian cysts bursting when going to the bathroom? Or related menstrual symptoms with gastro symptoms?
I had a gastro doc who said the menstruation cycle does not affect the gastrointestinal system at all. Esp Gastroparesis. I wanted to punch a wall as I did not want it hurt his pretty face. I mean on its own when I was younger I always had issues with my bowels around ovulating and especially my period. Luke period poops anyone? And I suffer from chronic cysts. I can feel them burst sometimes when I push going to the bathroom. Do any other ladies experience this? I’m forty and have had gastro for three years with symptoms. I’ve always had menstrual issues like endometriosis and cysts and started premenopause in my thirties. Just some background. My sister had her ovaries removed in her early thirties because of cysts and premenopausal symptoms esp migraines. I also deal. My gyno refuses to remove my ovaries tho. She is willing to. Do the more serious surgery of removing my uterus but told me towels not help my PMdd, cysts, menstrual pain or migraines. Just will stop th bleeding. Bleeding is th easiest to deal with. It’s not the problem. Everything else is.
Anyone relate in any way to menstrual issues and gastrointestinal shit esp Gastroparesis flairs?
