I started chemo in June 2014. My period stopped by August. Chemo was finished at the end of November 2014. I got my first period in January 2015 :/ just in time to start rads!

But then I had nothing until March and I just recently had one a couple weeks ago. Before breast cancer I would get lots of ovulation pain. Now I've been noting more constant pain in the lower part of my pelvis and I think it's my right ovary. I noticed it for a couple weeks in March around that period, but it went away, and now again this month. It started on the first day of my period and has been going on for the last two weeks. It's nothing terrible it's just it's there this kind of dull ache.

I am so sick of going to my doctor and I honestly think hes sick of seeing me too! Of course I will if this persists! But I'm just curious if any of you developed ovarian cysts after chemo? It makes sense to me because the ovaries are shut down for six months or more and then try to get fired back up again! Anyways just looking for some thoughts...
