Left Ovary?
Does anyone get the feeling that their ovary or ovaries swell during their period. Mine feels like it's the size of a softball sometimes....when my surgery was done, my doctor said my tubes were clear, but I don't understand the swelling.
In my case it was the cysts I had there. The cysts were caused by the endo.
When my right ovary was removed it was doubled in size due to swelling. I did notice more swelling during my period. So far my left ovary doesn't seem to swell so bad.
Yes definitely, at ovulation and with a period. Even after surgery including ovarian cyst removal. Visible swelling
Thank you ladies...
Your support means so much!
Thank you ladies. Mine also swells right before and during. I also walk around with my hand over it. When it's really bad, it's basically like a super sharp knife cutting it in half @A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

I was checked several years ago through an ultrasound( way before I was diagnosed with Endo) and they didn't find anything. He didn't check during my surgery, but I wonder if it is kind of like Endo in that it can only be found through surgery instead of an ultrasound. I was diagnosed with PCOS because of my hormones, but with my hormones being crazy due to the PCOS I could have developed one even though the pain and swelling in my ovaries has not changed since I first got my period at 13.
