I'm on day 17 of my cycle today, 3 nights ago I had some pains in my left side, thought it was pains from ovulating or a cyst. (I have had afew cysts last year, they went away on their own, no bleeding, just pains.) This is stupid, but I'm posting it anyway, I farted and when I did that I felt pain in my vagina, like a burning feeling for about 10 seconds, and also felt a "pop" on my left side. My husband was there and laughed, but when I told him how it felt he stopped...The next day I got up, went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was abit of blood. As the day went on, it got heavier, and now since Friday night it's been a constant flow of bleeding and big clots coming out. Been taking advil for pain, have a slight headache but other than that I've been feeling okay.
I had a shower afew mins ago and the flow kept on happening, ofcourse, I let my mind go and I started worrying about what this is, why it's happening, and all the what if's popped into my head making me feel full of anxiety! Which leads to health anxiety too! Yuk! Called my Therapist, but she hasn't called back yet. I really don't want to see a DR quite yet, I'm assuming this is a mid-cycle breakthrough bleed (not had this in years since I was a teen, even then it wasn't heavy like this)and nothing more serious or the cyst ruptured and has caused this bleeding. That didn't happen before so that is what is concerning me ...
If this has happened to anybody else, please let me know. I will go to the DR if this doesn't slow down by tomorrow. Plus, it's setting my anxiety off and making things worse, so right now I don't feel well, but I think it's more the physical reaction of what's going on.
Thanks in advance.
