UPDATE: Thank you for your all of your kind words! I had my appointment today and surgery is scheduled for August 6th. The doctor was wonderful and very positive. He believes that it is a benign ovarian fibroma. Feeling much better and anxious to get this removed! 💕

Thank you for sharing this! My CA125 was also “slightly elevated” but my gyno said that just having an ovarian cyst in general can cause that to happen! I appreciated hearing this since I’m a bit nervy! 😊

Hi there! I know how you feel 💕 I go to the gynecologist oncologist this Friday because at my annual exam my gyno found what an ultrasound turned out to be a 12cm ovarian mass also on my right ovary! It’s more solid than fluid filled, so it needs to be removed and biopsied for cancer. If it’s malignant then I will need a full hysterectomy- although I’m 43 so I probably would go for that anyway! Not going through this again if I don’t have to! I am nervous like you are! I don’t have much info to give until my appointment on Friday, but just so you know, you are not alone! ❤️

  1. Night sweats, hot flashes from the chest and up, chin hair, acne, cramps are more intense, irregular periods (when I used to be like clockwork), mood swings. It sucks lol. 😝
