Hello
I’m 22 years old and couple of months ago I was diagnosed with a simple ovarian cyst 4.3 cm in diameter. Couple of weeks ago I did home pregnancy test and it turned out to be positive.Afterward , I did blood test and my hcg level was 6737.
I’m still waiting for my gynecologist appointment and I’m very nervous and worried.I read that an ovarian cancer can sometimes elevates the hcg levels,so now I’m worried if my simple cyst never went away and it’s something way more serious.
What are the chances that the simple ovarian cyst turned out to be something else and I’m not even pregnant? I know my question sounds silly,but I’m worried as hell.

Thanks.Every replay will be greatly appreciated.

A brief medical history: I started getting really sick at the end of 2005 (I was 15) and I would be nauseous all the time. I had intense stomach pain, also. After months of tests, I finally had my gallbladder out because it was non-functioning. The doctors have since put me on birth control for heavy, painful periods and I was on Zoloft for a while for anxiety and OCD. I’ve also had irritable bowel syndrome ever since.

In early 2008, when I was 17, I had my appendix out in an emergency.

In February 2010 I got mono. I kept telling the doctors my spleen hurt, and they finally (after begging) did a test and found out it was taking my spleen a long time to go back to normal size, told me to take it easy.

About four weeks ago, I went to a new doctor (got tired of not being taken seriously at my last one) and told him that I’ve been very nauseous, and have had tightness in my throat/trouble swallowing. He said it was acid reflux, and put me on Ranitidine. It wasn’t working, and after days of waiting for a response, he told me I could try Prilosec. After three weeks of treatment, I am no better than I was. In fact, I’m more nauseous than ever.

Sunday night I felt pain in my lower abdomen and felt a hard lump. I told the nurse on the phone at the doctor’s and she said she’d tell him, but I don’t think she did. My mom called to make me an appt. and the doctor said it was an ovarian cyst and probably PCOS. I had an ultrasound that showed NOTHING. I’m leaving for school (hopefully. It all depends on my health) in two and a half weeks, so the doctor agreed to order me a cat scan, but he "wasn’t happy about it." and thought I was overreacting. Thing is, he’s making me pee in a cup to prove I’m not pregnant. Now I can tell you for a fact that there are at least 5 reasons I couldn’t be pregnant (not sexually active, weight LOSS, hymen intact, ultrasound showed no baby, on birth control, etc.) and anytime I’ve ever had a test like this, they just make me sign a paper saying that I’m not pregnant.

My mom said he’s just making me go for a urine test because he wants to make the process of getting my test as inconvenient as possible because I practically demanded more testing, and he’s mad that the radiographer assured me it wasn’t a cyst before the Dr. had a chance to look over the results.

Q1: Is my doctor a clown? Not only is it hard to get ahold of him (even with nurses intervening), but he seems to not know what he’s talking about half the time, and he told me that my painful lump (that is STILL there) was a cyst that probably already went away when they did the ultrasound.

Q2: What could be causing my constant nausea and feeling of tightness in my throat? It’s not my breathing that feels tight, but it’s uncomfortable to swallow sometimes and in general I feel like I’m always wearing a tight turtleneck sweater.

I went to the er for stomach pains and while doing a cat scan they found a ruptured cyst on my ovary they alerted me of it and said nothing else about it I was hospital for 3 days while GI doctors looked to figure out my stomach. I was then sent home and figuring out my stomach issues but they never said anything else about the cyst. Now Im having pain where ny ovary is painful urination trouble urinating painful intercourse and nausea. Should I be concerned I mean can anything bad happen to me? It’s known as a crappy e.r. So what can I this do to me and what can I do to prevent it/stop it

I am 16, and have recently found out that I have a 13×9x7 dermoid ovarian cyst.
What should I expect from the gynecologist? I have never been to one before, so I am a bit nervous.

My appointment is on Wednesday at 3:30
Thank you!

I’m a virgin, so there is no possible way I’m pregnant.
I started my period when I was about 12, and I’m 15 currently. My period has been pretty steady for 2 years.
Last september I had surgery. I had an ovarian cyst, which resulted in the removal of one of my ovaries. I had my period the day of the surgery, and the day of the next surgery about 3 weeks later. Since then my period has been consistent. It has always been near the end of the month, but I haven’t had a period since the end of May-why?

I heard that it either means that the egg was not released properly and so it caused fluid to fill up in a cyst, or that the egg was simply not fertilized. Which, if either, is true?

Okay, well, I’m 17, and my girlfriend Melanie is 18 (yes, we’re lesbians, so if that’s a problem with you, no need to answer), and recently (Monday morning) she had surgery to get an ovarian cyst removed. She was diagnosed with cancer when she was 10, and this November, she will be cancer-free for five years. However, because of this, the doctor was more concerned about her cyst. She has a large cut in her abdomen where they removed it and it is all stitched up. She came home Thursday evening, and I’ve been staying with her family so I could help her out when her parents are at work, because she feels more comfortable with me helping her out than her brother. Well, Melanie is a very energetic, active person, so she’s becoming very antsy, but she’s also still in a lot of pain where they cut her open, so she’s spending a lot of time sleeping, and resting. However, Melanie also normally has a VERY high sex drive, and her surgery hasn’t changed that at ALL. It’s probably actually higher. She thinks that it would be fine for us to have sex if there’s no penetration, which obviously isn’t a problem for us, anyways, but it sort of worries me. Would it be okay for us to have sex this soon after her operation if there’s no penetration involved and she’s not pushing herself too hard, physically? It makes me nervous, but she’s climbing the walls, and her sex drive is through the roof, she wants it so bad. Would we be okay to have sex if there’s no penetration, or is it better to wait a little longer?
No need for comments about our sexuality…

Okay so long story short…..about a week before Christmas I was having really bad lower abdominal pain. Found out that I had a complex cyst on my left ovary. Doctor said it was common in women my age..not a big deal..as long as I’m not in pain it will most likely go away..and to follow up in a month with my regular OBGYN. So ….the pain went away I thought it was all good scheduled an appt. with my dr. for the end of this month as a follow up.
BUT NOW…the past two weeks..the pain is back..not too bad but its there just like before …just on the lower left side. And now when I go go the bathroom my pee is kind of cloudy. There is no pain when I pee or discoloration…just kind of cloudy.
Has anyone experienced this? Could it be b/c maybe the cysts came back…or it is it something completly different?? I drink lots of water so the cloudyness isnt b/c im dehydrated. Please let me know if you have ever experienced any of the above. THANKS!
No i’m not ony any antibiotics and I am going back to the doctor at the end of the month.

im 19, not sexually active, never have been. don’t plan on until i’m in a really serious relationship.

height 5”6
weight: 260

I have polycystic ovarian syndrome, fatty liver disease, and sleep apnea.

My problem is this:

From july 2008 – may 4th 2011 i hadn’t gotten a period, and from may 4th-july 5th i was having abnormal vaginal bleeding everyday,lots of clotting, and i would have to change my tampon AND pad every 45 minuets ( it was light at the begining, and coming into july, it got so bad)

I went to my doctor, and she said its just because of the ovarian cysts that i’m having all of this bleeding, anyways she put me on the birth control called try-ceclyn lo?? (spelling..)
and i was taking it for about a week, nothing had stopped, so then i went to the ER, (my doctor doesn’t really do anything..)
they sent me to a gynocologist,he put me on these hormone pills called : PROMETRIUM 100MG
and the bottle says " TAKE 3 CAPSULES ONCE DAILY FOR 2 WEEKS OF EACH 4 WEEK CYCLE AS DIRECTED"

so i took those for about 2 weeks, and had really really bad night terrors, so stopped.

Went back to my doctor, and she put me on these birth control pills called:MARVELON

So i started taking those 28 days ago, it stopped the bleeding for about 1 week, but then i started slowly spotting everyday again.. and ive never had it this bad before! i went to USA for the weekend, and its so embarrasing, i had to go to the bathroom to change my tampon like every 45 minuets, or else i would soak through.

(i know im being graphic.. sorry..)

over night is the worst, i would wear a Big Tenna pad, plus a tampon (super plus)
and i would wake up in the hotel room, and my shorts were soaked with blood!

i also have these unbareable pains in my lower abdominal area.
its not a ruptured cyst..
but i don’t think that this bleeding is normal what soever. its affecting me socially, and physcially.

what could be a treatment,and causes of this?

i plan on calling my gynecologist ASAP tomorrow morning, i just wanted to know if anyone else has had problems like this, or knows anything about it.

thanks very much,

s.

put on a considerable amount of weight with an ovarian cyst. I have just been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst and my diet has not changed whatsoever. I’ve always weighed about 10 1/2 stone and have had symptoms similar to pregnancy for about 2 months…went for an ultrasound and an ovarian cyst has now been diagnosed, I can only put my fluctuating weight down to that…I am now weighing almost 12 stone…my heaviest weight EVER! Is this normal??
