Low back pain/cervical cancer?


Low back pain/cervical cancer?Hey guys,

I've just turned 23 and for the past 8 mths ..I've been having low back pain on/off. It's a dull low back pain and I might not have it for a couple of days / week .. then it comes back again.

I am NOT pregnant ...I have only had one sexual partner (my current one) all my life and I do not have any STI's.

My periods are 35 days apart lately ...which is a little more spread out than usual but they are not heavier and they have always been painful.


I demanded my doctor book me an ultrasound which I am currently waiting on as the back pain wasn't bothering me but I am passing more mucus than usual ..not a lot but sometimes it is tinged with brown. My bloods are fine.

My question is if the back pain was cervial/ovarian cancer would it come/go or would if be there all the time? Should I be worried?

It's worth checking out but try not worry too much hun. I often get dull lower back pain just before my periods start. It has to do with increase in estrogen levels I think. Are you on the pill? It could be a side effect of that also.
If it was something sinister like cancer and you've had it for 8 months then you would have been FAR worse of by now. If it has remained constant it's more likely to be a chronic condition and nothing serious.
The brown spotting could also be due to the pill or a harmless ovarian cyst.
