A member asked:

Not pregnant. period 6 days late. on and off cramps for over a week, used to be bloated and gassy, not too bad anymore. could it be a ovarian cyst?

Specializes in Family Medicine

Unlikely: Your symptoms are not sounding like an ovarian cyst. Usually you'll have a one sided pelvic pain which can be quite severe, and will get worse over time. If concerned, please see your doctor for an evaluation. Good luck.
