Im post meno, but am having symptoms that seem to be something else.

Had a scan about a year ago and was told i have simple cysts, well Im getting this pressure thing again in pelvis area, and weight gain!! are they things that come with meno? Ive never really had meno problems only the flushes, now Im worried Ive got something else

Im going back to docs on Monday to ask for a CA125 test, if they will give me one

So does anyone think its just meno symptoms? and why cant I lose weight

Thanks.

I would worry to so best have a long chat with your GP.

Weight gain can be muscular or fat  .......... we are what we eat  - how's your exercise regime?

If you had a scan a yr ago its very unlikely that the simple cysts would have turned in to anything else
If the hospital would have thought they were going to be a problem surely they would have removed them
Pressure in the pelvis can be from vaginal atrophy
I had cysts on my ovaries and the consultant said that they would never cause any pain or discomfort
Weight gain is common during meno
Still no point in driving yourself mad with worry - go and get yourself checked for peace of mind

Thanks for your replies, my exercise regime is good, I walk 2 or 3 times a day with the dog and my job involves a lot of walking too, thats why I cant understand why my weight wont shift
