How did your first hospital/doctors appointment go?
I am 17 years old, and for my last two periods, something quite large has come out of me. I immediately began doing research, and I discovered fibroids. I was speaking to the nurse in my college once and she asked to see my pictures, so I showed. She said that she has never actually worked with anyone with fibroids, but from what she's learnt about them, the symptoms that I was describing and the pictures I showed her could definitely be fibroids. She told me to see a doctor as soon as I could because she said even if they aren't fibroids, something still isn't right. I've been putting off booking a doctors appointment because I'm worried about how it will go and even maybe even not being listened to since fibroids are quite rare in 17 year olds. So, how did you find your initial appointment? What happened during it?
