My period is late and tummy feels bloated and heavy. But i also have history of ovarian cysts. Now im not sure if its pregnancy or the cyst again, did this happen to anyone?
With my pcos cysts I had delayed periods and bloating which felt like early pregnancy signs. The test and scan are the only real answers. Please get checked rather than guessing, symptoms overlap a lot.
Yes it can feel similar and confuse you, dont panic about it. Just take a test and if needed an ultrasound. The doctor will tell you clearly so you arent left guessing.
A cyst can cause similar things like missed periods or bloating, so yes it can confuse you. I had a cyst once that delayed my period. Best to do a test and get an ultrasound, dont assume either way.
Symptoms can overlap which is why self guessing isnt reliable here. A pregnancy test plus a scan will clear it quickly. Let your gynac confirm whats actually going on.
My doctor said some cysts cause symptoms that mimic early pregnancy like nausea, bloating, missed period. Thats why she always does a urine test plus ultrasound to be sure. Worth getting both done.
