Pelvic Ultrasound Shows Mild Heterogeneous Uterus, Right Ovarian Cyst. Abdominal Pain, Bad Cramps. Puss Present, Prescribed Antibiotics

I just got back the results of a pelvic ultra sound, it says that I have a mildly heterogeneous uterus without focal fibroid, endometrial stripe thickness of 11mm, and a complex 2.6cm right ovarian cyst. I had a pap and endometrial biopsy on Sept. 22nd and scheduled a hysterectomy for the 24th of this month. I started my period the next day. I have had low abdominal pain since and pain on my right side, I thought it was just really bad cramps but my period has passed and the pain is only getting worse. I called my GYN and he ordered the ultra sound, but it took a few days for them to get me in.I went to my PCP 4 days ago because the pain was getting even worse, and he did a UA and it came back positive for high amounts of puss, he prescribed 2 antibiotics. As of yet I am not feeling any better. My results are back now and both of my doctors offices are closed today. Any thoughts about appreciated.

Hello ma'am.

Pus is usually the sign of an nfection, so it would be right to prescribe you the antibiotics, but as you have not experienced a response yet, a change in the antibiotic will have to be considered as you could be resistant to it.

As for the pain this could be due to the infection or even the ovarian cyst. Please report to your doctors at the earliest for quick management of your condition. In the meantime, try to take warm water showers or apply a warm compress in the lower abdominal region where the cramps are present. Also it goes without saying, please avoid all forms of sexual contact and try to give more emphasis on personal hygiene at the moment.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
