Okay so I went to the hospital 2 weeks ago going on 3. I was diagnosed with complex ovarian cyst. So the next day I go to the ob/Gyn and he said there should be nothing to worry about that the cyst had ruptured and that’s why I was in so much pain that it will leave by itself fast since the fluid is coming out. Well I still have a lot of pain on my right side. Should I get a second opinion? He didn’t give me antibiotics. Was he suppose to? Please help me out. I just wanna know if I should take this seriously or wait till the pain goes away! Thanks!

Complex ovarian cyst just means it’s a little more than a simple cyst. A simple cyst is just a single bag of fluid. A complex cyst might have blood or clot in it, or septations dividing it into smaller compartments, or solid components.
Cysts can cause a lot of pain sometimes when they rupture. You should not need antibiotics, as they are not usually due to infections.
However, most doctors I work with want to follow up a cyst, especially if complex, just to make sure it goes away. They usually do this in 2-3 months. Since you’re still having a lot of pain, I’d call him up and let him know. He will probably do another ultrasound just to make sure things are ok. Good luck.
