Dear, whoever cares about women’s health 💕 The past 2 weeks I have been in the worst pain I’ve felt in my life regarding my body. I was admitted to the er Saturday and have seen multiple Dr’s and will see specialists. The people closest to me know in detail what I’ve been experiencing. 💕 Women’s health is one of the biggest things in the world that are overlooked, especially in the black/brown communities. A lot of women, especially black women(iykyk) are never taken seriously. 👉🏽 I have a cyst on my left ovary that is leaking into my stomach and other woman parts that has caused me to develop PID(Pelvic inflammatory disease). 💕 PID is usually caused by an STI(not my case) and can also develop from other bacterial infections and any issues regarding the fallopian tubes, ovaries and any other part of the woman’s reproductive area. It can be cured. I am on antibiotics mixed with ibuprofen to help sustain the infection and pain. The antibiotics will help to remove the infection. 💕 Cysts are mostly normal for us woman every month who have a regular menstrual cycle. The cysts should never become bigger than what most doctors say “4 1/2cm - 5cm” and usually when they get that big it is time to discuss undergoing a smaller, but invasive surgical removal. 👉🏽 Over the past week and a half I have gained 10lbs and have been puffy, sore and swollen all over my body... my stomach, arms and legs to be specific. Sometimes it is unbearable. I am here to share my experience and to hopefully help someone the best way I can, especially if you feel you are not being seen or heard. Keep researching more doctors and keep getting checked. Your health and body matter. I’ve been prepping myself for September fashion week and I still plan to do, for now my health and making sure that I am okay is most important! God got me always! Just say a little prayer for me if you don’t mind. I know I’ll be okay. 🙏🏽 💕 Ps, I’ve been working and have been trying to workout even with lighter weight and hit my macros like a crazy person(@keysbyki_ is life) 🫣 4 days a week like this. I need to relax now. Keep you posted when I can. Kiana 💕 #womenshealth #womensupportingwomen
