Can fibroids in ovary lead to back pain?
Patient: Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Dear doctor, I am 33 yrs old, married with one daughter age 9. In recent times I have developed severe backaches which continues for several days. I had a miscarriage recently, during my last scan my doctor informed me that my left ovary is slightly oversized compare to the right one. Can it be due to fibroid. I always hear woman saying if having terible backpain always, it might be because of fibroid, is that true? My daughter (9 yrs old) was born through vacuum, and my doctor recommended epidural during my delivery due to very long labor. Can you pls advise? Doctor: hi,welcome to HCM As I can understand from your history, your major complaints is of back pain.A slight oversized left ovary, as reported by doctor. A history of miscarriage.considering this information following conditions appears likelyovarian cyst, uterine fibroid, endometriosis.all these conditions can have presentation similar to yours.If a patient with complaints and history as yours comes to my clinic, I would advice an Transvaginal sonography to rule out uterine conditions. A consultation to gynaecologist will definitely help.welcome for further suggestions.Regards,Dr Pankaj Borade
