Hello
I'm a 26 year old woman in reasonably good health. Over the past month I've begun to suffer from constant nausea. My stomach feels swollen - I feel like I've gained weight, buy my lifestyle hasn't really changed. My stomach just sticks out and hurts when I touch it. I am not pregnant, but the last time I had sex it was unusually painful and that worried me a bit. Most recently I noticed that the swelling is at its worst right after I pee. Does anyone have any idea what's wrong with me? I will see a doctor, but I would like to know what to expect...
Thanks.

Have you looked up the symptoms of ovarian cysts? I've heard they can cause some of your symptoms.

"What are the symptoms of ovarian cysts?
Many women have ovarian cysts without having any symptoms. Sometimes, though, a cyst will cause these problems:
pressure, fullness, or pain in the abdomen
dull ache in the lower back and thighs
problems passing urine completely
pain during sexual intercourse
weight gain
painful menstrual periods and abnormal bleeding
nausea or vomiting
breast tenderness
Good luck with everything- hope you feel better soon!
