A couple months ago I had some pressure and swelling on the right side around the ovarian area, I would have shooting pains in the area sometimes but then one day I had a huge pain and it never came back. I didn’t bleed abnormally, there’s no pain there anymore. So could a cyst bust and get no medical attention and I can still be fine?

ive had 3 cysts in the past 11 months… on my right ovary, they are fairly small and are hemmorhagic so i usually spot for a few days with cramping. im on the pill, and i actually skip my period by starting the new pack a week early per my doctor- i havent had a period since early september- so how did i get this cyst?
also, what are the treatments for reoccuring cysts, i mean i cant take advil forever right? is there anything legit that can be done?
Thanks!

I found out I have an ovarian cyst about 6 weeks ago. I had another ultrasound last week to see if it went away on its own and it hadn’t. Well I am supposed to go to the doctor tomorrow to find out what I can do to fix it.I’ve been having horrible pain at night, is there anyway to make the pain go away without medicine? (they gave me pain pills but I don’t like taking stuff like that) Also this all started when I went to the ER (severe pains and extremely excessive bleeding) while I was there the dr said something about being anemic but not bad enough to need a transfusion. Since it’s been about 7 more weeks with heavy bleeding do you think a transfusion could be needed? .. I wonder how I can bleed so much.. like how does my uterus produce that much blood so fast (like enough for a normal period within a day) Do you think I have something else wrong besides the cyst? Final issue- I am only 19 and I am hoping to be able to have children.. do you think I will have problems? I know I should ask a doctor but I want to know from people who have been through it and see what happened to them. Thanks in advance.
Please read the question before you answer it… I know I should ask my docotr BUT I want to know people’s expierences ..

so my boyfriend and i have been trying to get pregnant for the past 5 months and nothing so far. I had an ovarian cyst when i was 10 years old in my right ovary. I am 21 yrs old and recently in december i had to get an ultrasound done and saw that i have an ovarian cyst but that it was now in my left ovary…i was just wondering if this ovarian cyst was a reason why i am unable to get pregnant?? i asked the dr and they said that it is a common things to have an ovarian cyst but that women are still able to get pregnant..i guess i just keep thinking something is wrong with me but i just wanted to know if anybody had any information about this. My cousin tried getting pregnant for 3 years but was unable to because of an ovarian cyst, then the cyst went away and she got pregnant right away. I was just wondering if that was just her luck or was it because of the ovarian cyst?? pleasee any comments would be helpful.

I jsut called my dr to see if there is a reason why I have not had a period in 97 days and have been spotting off and on all week but only for an hour or so each day. I thought I may be pregnant, but I have gotten 4 bfn’s. They said I could have an ovarian cyst and need to come in for an ultrasound. My question is what are the symptoms of an ovarian cyst, and how is it treated. Also, will it affect my ability to concieve?
I dont know why they would think I have this as I do not have any pain and my only symptom is longer periods and possibly the fact that I have been spotting this week a bit.
Thanks for your answers, I am really worried!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 years ago when I was 29 years old. I am ER+ and Her2 +. I had bilateral mastectomy, the right side as prevention. My dr wrote to my insurance company asking them to approve the BRCA tests. They turned me down. Twice. I have not had them done myself since they cost about 00.
I am supposed to have my ovaries out next week, by my own request, but my onc told me this past week that he doesn’t agree with my decision. I am currently in a study where my ovaries are shut down each month, for another 2+ years. He is worried about the long term effects of being in menopause at my age. I am worried about ovarian cancer as I am not sure if I have the BRCA mutation or not. If I have it, I have read that there is a 16-60% chance of getting ovarian cancer.
As a side note, I had an ovarian cyst rupture, which in itself is odd since less than 2% of women in menopause have ovarian cysts.
Has anyone else been in this situation? I don’t know what to do.
For the one who thinks that it doesn’t believe it costs that much for the test, I have found independent labs who charge just under 00. I suppose it could have changed in the 3 years when I last checked it. I do know it is very expensive. And it was my choice to have the preventative mastectomy. I was 29 with 2 young kids and was willing to do whatever I needed to. That surgery was not forced on me, and unless you have been in the position, I do not think you can tell me what you would or would not have done.

I was supposed to start another round of fertility treatments yesterday but found out that I have a 19mm ovarian cyst. What could have caused this? Will the treatments make my PCOS worse?
