Guest guest Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I have to celebrate. Just got back from the OB/GYN who took an ultrasound re-test of my ovaries. I was so ready to make the excuse that i didn't have my date book with me so i'd have to call to schedule the " biopsy " (if she suggested it) etc... but turns out, i dont' have to do anything at all... My right ovary showed 2 follicles which she said is probalby my ovulating ovary (since i'm back off the pill), and not concerned. My left ovary has ONE cyst, and it measures smaller than it did last year. last year it measured 2.4 cm in june and 2.3 in july and now it measures 2 cm. so it's shrinking. (hmmm...maybe iodine working very slowly?) the " eco-genic mass " that they had originally found last year, is not on any ovary. it's gone. Prior tests last year showed both ovaries had tons of follicles in them. i suspect it was due to my body trying to become regular post WP. I had that ultrasound done last year right around the time i was detoxing or just after detoxing the rest of the WP out of my body. so i think my ovaries just went berzerk. she " lightly " suggested a ca125, but only if i was concerned, but since i already had that test, and it was negative, i didn't opt for it. and she said since it was shrinking and I have no pain, not a big deal. She suggested we just retest in a year to see if it grows and thats it! YAY! i can go back to focusing on thryoid... i had to laugh when she said " but you need some form of birth control... " ya.... like i need a hole in the head. I'm 40 and married. Its not like I'm 15, without a husband or a job. I think i could handle a baby if there was an " accident. " (not likely tho, since we're careful.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
