I have been having issues of bladder urgency for over a year along with a number of UTI's. I have been to a urologist who said my bladder may not be completely emptying. I had pain in my side so I had a CAT scan and they detected a cyst on my kidney and ovary, which I was told not to worry about. That was five months ago. I am 44 years old patientold and have 1 child who is 16. I have always had regular periods. My bladder issues seem to have disappeared when I changed my diet and began drinking tons of water, but now I have skipped a period this month which has scared the crap out of me because this has NEVER happened to me. HPT was negative and had tubes tied 16 years old patientago. All blood work is normal except I found out I have HSV2 and am on Valtex daily. I am freaking out that I have cancer because I have skipped a period and have had this on and off again bladder issue. In 2008, I had a golf ball size endometrioma removed from my abdomen along my csection scar (benign). I have had blood work, CT scan, ultrasound of bladder and ovaries, kidney, pancreas, liver, spleen, gallbladder, an upper GI and an entire cardiology workup (unrelated). So I cannot understand the skipped period, but two other symptoms I have had are severe vaginal dryness and greenish stool. Not sure if it's all related. Any thoughts? My diet has changed to five 16 oz of water per day, no caffiene, no carbonated drinks and no spicy foods (maybe my body is cleansing and thats the reason for the green stool?  Curious as to why I'm skipping periods -- could be perimenopause?
