OK i am 15 and Wednesday night i had a really sharp pain in my side mom thought it was just a pulled muscle and i went to the doctor the day they thought it was appendicitis. well i had a xray and ct scan and we found it was an ovarian cyst.and it ruptured a pretty big one at that. the doctor said id be fine in about a week. now my mom and my doctor want me to have pap-smears done! what exactly do they do? has anyone ever had one especially to rupture? how long did it take you to heal did it prevent you to have children. o yes they run in my family and ovarian cancer? any comments just stories would help a lot

Ok, so I have recently miscarried about 3 weeks ago… Around the same time I found out I have a large ovarian cyst (10cm) on my Right ovary that needs to be surgically removed along with my right ovary… I have a date for surgery in about 5 weeks… I have been having unprotected sex for about 2 weeks with my boyfriend… I have tried contacting my MD for birthcontrol in the mean time but am unable to get an appointment for 3 weeks, which is pointless!!… My question is, If I were to get pregnant before my surgery what are the chances that everything will be ok? Will the large cyst cause complications or cause me to miscarry again, or will I be able to carry to term? Other than the cyst, I am pretty healthy… If I do get pregnant, and something goes on with the cyst, will the MD be able to operate without compromising the pregnancy?

I know I am asking a lot of questions, but I am just really curious…

Any mature answers will be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,
DM

is an ovarian cyst the same as cancer? and do you have to have a major syrgery?

Ok, so a year ago, my hubby was told by a doctor that he had something called epididymitis. He was given anti-biotics and it went away in just a few days. Well, now my hubby and I have been trying to have a second baby for the last like 3 or 4 months, and have been unsuccessful. I thought it was because of me. But is it possibly that this epididymitis might have caused my hubby to become infertil? Or is he ok because it cleared up right away?
I’ve never had any problems with Ovarian cysts (as far as I know) and this would be our second pregnancy, so I know I can get pregnant. In just wondering what other reasons could cause us to be having issues getting pregnant. Advice would be appreciated, too. Thanks.

I’m 20 years old right now, well back in February 2011 I thought my stomach was going to explode then I went to hospital and got a CT scan and reveals I have a cyst. Then I was having pain again then went back to the hospital and I had an ultrasound I’m not too sure it was either for ovaries or a gallbladder (can’t remember).
Then in June 2011 I went to the GI doctor and they order me a colonoscopy/endoscopy and I was having cysts on ovaries before I had this done. I mention that. Then my colonoscopy is clear and on the endoscopy reveals I have hiatal hernia.
Then in August I went to have a Pap smear and pelvic exam both came out normal.
I was concern about my ovarian cysts and I’ve been having irregular periods since I was 16, so my doctor put me on birth control pills then I got my period for a week and a half, then something went wrong and my thigh/knees/ankle on my left leg hurts and then I got worried and worried because I may have ovarian cancer then my mom told me she read the side effect of TriSprintec and I was wondering it could be one of the side effect. I was going to hospital today, but thanks to my sister telling my doctor about birth control and leg pain I’m going to my doctor in 2 days as well as she have a doctor’s appointment. I’ve mention about ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer a few times she said I don’t have it and I’m still worried.

Then I’m worried to death because I have a few symptoms of ovarian cancer like indigestion, ovarian cysts, thigh pain, irregular periods. I’m going crazy and then I was like diagnose myself with ovarian cancer.

I’ve been worrying like crazy for almost a year because of the ovarian cyst.

I don’t know what to do anymore.

I’ve been in menopause for decades (medically caused in the 80s) with fully intact ovaries and other parts. For the past couple of months, I’ve had lower back pain and lower right pelvic pain. No vaginal bleeding. Had transvaginal and pelvic ultrasound – they found thickening of the uterine lining, and the ovaries were not viewable. My gp referred me to a gyn for an appt. This was late Sat, and the office is closed on Monday.

Could the thickening be causing the pain? I had initially thought perhaps a cyst (unlikely since its been decades since a period, or perhaps ovarian cancer. Them not seeing the ovaries makes that diagnosis difficult, altho I know an MRI would show them if they are stuck behind the intestines.

I was on prempro for decades, and had dropped the .625 dosage to a lower level about a year ago. Dr. did not refill my prescription for it.

Info on the above in the net is bare, especially when all the conditions are put together. Dr. mentioned that GYN will probably want to do a biopsy on the lining. She also said the lining was nodular, not smooth.

No history of gyn. cancer in my family.

Any info would be appreciated!

i,m 28years old with history of 2years infertility and past history of ovarian cyst.i aborted in 1.5missperiod 2week before.

a few hours ago i had a very sudden and unexpected intense pain. in my lower stomach. right around my pelvic area. when i went to stand up i felt a sudden burst in that area like water rushing. i have been in a good amount of pain for the past few hours.
i am a virgin.
btw im 18

what should i do?

I am a 45 year old woman who had a partial (uterus removed) hysterectomy at age 32. I have been having symptoms of PCOS. I had an ultrasound done and it showed I have a complex follicle on my right ovary. It is 3×2x1 cm. What is the difference between a follicle and a cyst?

I just found out today that I have an ovarian cyst that is about 7cm wide or big or whatever?

The doctor wants me to just let it burst. Is there anything you can do to make it burst faster or make it shrink so it won’t hurt as much?

I don’t want to have an operation :/

any advice would help
