Ovarian Cyst…?

My friend is 28, she has had ovarian cysts since her early 20’s.
She is married with no children… yet. She has multiple, persistent cysts on both her ovaries. They never shrink or go away even with pills. She has frequent, like every 2wks, periods and severe cramping. Surgery is not an option. She does want children oneday.
What the best options for treating these cyst and retain her fertility? Any natural cures available. Please any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Birth control not an option anymore, tried and didn’t work
Her doctor isn’t very helpful or supportive, only prescribes meds for pain.

Can an ovarian cyst cause a positive on pregnancy test?

I took three at home pregnancy test and they were all positive. I went to the doctor to confirm and they gave me a urine test and it came out positive as well. However, when I went back for my blood test results that the gyno took it came out negative and somewhere the gyno mentioned I was low in HCG which could mean I just have a cyst and just not pregnant. I was upset after being told by the family doctor that i was and she reviewed and said everything looked fine, but agreed that the HCG was low. I’m completely confused and wondering is it possible to get a postive pregnancy and not be pregnant and have a cyst after all regardless of having my own home test and doctors test taken and all being positive, and my blood test being negative? Am i pregnant or not?

Next question, what are the sideeffects of lapro-surgery?
