today i had a cat scan and i have a ovarian cyst 5.5 cms big on my left side,
its very painful and im going to get a mamogram in a few days to look further into it, and what i need to do for it.
just wondering what are the chances of me having to get this removed?
im 15 years old and this is my first one.
the pain is constant and almost unbearable,
is 5.5 big?
just wondering what the chances are for having to get it removed,
thank you

THOSE HURT LIKE HELL
When it pops, it’ll release poison into your system. That’ll make you sick and you’d need antibiotics.
Removal is quick and easy. Ask about the laser treatment.
I would say 5.5 is big! Get out a ruler and check, that’s about 2.25 inches!!! gosh, good luck with the apt… but have good thoughts!
5.5cm is big, but ovarian cysts can grow much bigger than this, depending on the type of cyst. The level of pain isn’t always directly related to the size of the cyst.
There’s a good site with information on the different types of cysts at http://www.OvarianCystsHealed.info – just click on the ‘ovarian cysts information’ tab
