i had no idea. i had no previous symptoms whatsoever, not even period pains. one moment i was absolutely fine and the next i was doubled over in pain and i had to be rushed to the hospital. it took them five hours and multiple blood, urine, and pregnancy tests until they realized the problem was womb-related and they had to transfer me to another hospital specializing in gynecology to confirm and start an emergency operation.

if you feel any sort of pain, anything at all, i recommend you get a pap/transvaginal ultrasound test and check it out before it’s too late. you don’t want a possible cyst overgrowing and rupturing inside you out of nowhere like it happened to me. the pain is immense and so is the danger of damaging the uterus. i would’ve lost my left ovary if it weren’t for those skilled surgeons; and i honestly regret not having taken an ultrasound test before, even if i had no need for it.
