I had a visit with Mr Parsons my meno consultant this week so before I went I decided to have a private trans vaginal scan done just to check all was as it should be,I went for the scan and the sonographer said to me we'll do your pelvic scan first then your internal one.she did the pelvic one then said to me because she'd gotten such lovely clear photos,there were no indications of anything untoward,no masses no fluids and my ovaries were completely shrivelled not a sign of them she didn't feel it was necessary to proceed with the trans vaginal and put me through any more discomfort than was necessary bearing in mind I'm still battling with the v.a that was a huge relief so anyway I took all the copies to mr parsons and he was delighted he said finally someone for you who knows what she's doing then I started with my questions,if my ovaries are shrivelled up does this lessen my chance of ovarian cancer and he said most definately because there would be fewer risks of cell changes so that was a good result and perfectly normal so ladies good news for us all who wonder and worry about these things wasn't it.xx
