multiple ovarian cysts on one ovary

I am 37 yrs old never had children and have been diagnoised on ultasound with two small (2.8 cm and 1cm)complex cysts on my right ovary and one 1cm complex cyst on my left ovary. I have not had a period in over one year and am in some pain with other various symptoms. My GYN took blood yesterday for four tumor markers but I do not know results yet. If the marker test results are negative, she wants to do laproscopic surgery and take biopsies of these cysts to identify them.

I had a transvaginal ultrasound last week and the dr. found 2 cysts on my left ovary, 3 on my right and one in my uterus. He said that they all were benign and not to worry about them. I have had a problem with cysts for the last 20 years. They cause me alot of pain when I get them. Enough that I have to double over in pain at times. Just wondering if anyone else has muliple cysts that the dr.s are not concerned with and what you are doing about them.

Recent transvag ultrasound shows many new cysts small on both ovaries since last ultrasound 3 years ago. Md said right ovary looked like it was ovulating. Tumor marker labs done and both ovaries to be removed. Uterus is in place. Thanks for help.

bilateral = both sides poly = many cystic = cysts (just a word and nothing bad is meant by it woman produce one to two cysts once a month to release ova for fertilization) ovarian = pertaining to the ovaries disease = something that should not be happening maturing follicle in the left ovary is exactly what happens near ovulation PCOS = most times women produce one functional cyst per month ...

Just to add... I have to say I am concerned that I obviously have multiple cysts on my right ovary and "numerous" cysts on my left ovary. Anyone else here had this?

I had an ultrsound yesterday due to pain which showed 3 cysts on the left ovary with the biggest one 3cm and 2 cysts on the right ovary both less than 1cm. There was also a large amount of free fluid which is actually pushing the uterus forward. I am waiting to hear from the dr today to see what he wants to do which will probably be removing the left ovary. I am nervous about having surgery because I feel that the cysts are symptoms of my hormone replacement not being accurate.

You can freak yourself out googling ovarian cysts. Ovarian cancer is scary. Tee statistic I read today is that you have 1.4% of getting ovarian cancer which is not very high. That means you have a 99.6% you will never get ovarian cancer.

Although it’s not known for sure whether benign ovarian cysts or polycystic ovaries develop into ovarian cancer, the vast majority of ovarian cysts appear to be unrelated. Women who have polycystic ovaries or ovarian cancer seldom have obvious symptoms early on. However, in both disorders, symptoms are noticed as the condition progresses. Because the ovaries are affected on both disorders, the some of the symptoms can be similar.

m sorry it took so long to get this looked at. Most ovarian cysts, even complex ones, are benign so you should not need to lose your ovary. We need all our female parts our whole lives for good health. Studies have shown removal of even one part - an ovary, ovary, the uterus even Fallopian tube - has negative effects on our long-term health and well-being. Unfortunately, removal of women's sex organs is grossly overused.

53cm* in size noted with flow in the wall of the cysts on the color doppler. smaller cysts also noted in the right ovary, measuring 0.64cm* 0.61cm and 0.50cm*0.39cm in size . left ovary is 1.02cm*0.47cm*1.66cm in size. impression: 1. myoma in the body of the uterus and small free fluid in the cul de sac. 2.multiple cysts in the right ovary, the largest clear cyst in the right ovary is 3.75cm* 3.53cm in size. normal left cyst. 3. in comparison with prior the cyst decreased in size.

In July of 2008 I was found to have an enlarged left ovary to a little over 5 cm with several complex cysts on it. My right ovary was smaller and had some simple cysts on it. I had a second ultrasound 2 days ago and my left ovary remains above 5 cm with several complex cysts and the right ovary has again simple cysts. I have been searching the net to find out more about complex cysts and several times have seen the recomendation of getting complex cysts checked for cancer.

My cyst was on the right and all my pain was on the left. That ovary is gone now. Now I have cysts on the left. Hope that helps?

Thanks for your thoughts. They have never diagnosed me with PCOS. And this is the first time I've had multiple cysts on one ovary. One cyst has been there for a year and was mentioned as "unchanged". Another seemed to appear larger. I have an appointment with an OB/GYN to discuss treatment. I agree this is probably a simple cyst, I just wish that the radiologist had described it as such in the Ultrasound report the way the other radiologist did in the report from the CT scan.

There is a wonderful place to visit while on here.. Called the "Health Pages" and it is in the upper right . It will give you lots of information on cysts. Also, you can google "ovarian complex cyst".. It basically means there may be fluids and solids rather than just fluid. Not to panic. The laparoscopy will determine exactly what's going on and they will possibly remove the cysts or sometimes the ovary itself has to go.

and wouldnt you know i have ANOTHER cyst, but this one is on my right ovary and measures 6cm x 4cm x 6cm. My question is should i have another laproscopy to have it removed before it ruptures...or should i weigh the option about removing the ovaries? I do not have any children. My husband and i are not using any protection and i am on an estrogen patch because my body is not producing it. Please help...

I too have had multiple cysts, but not in such a short time period. At my last surgery we (the doctor and I) discussed ovary removal if necessary and it was, so we did. My remaining ovary picked right up where the other left off with no delay. Like Trudie suggested I now take BC pills to reduce cysts on remaining ovary so that I hopefully won't face surgical menopause in the near future.

I do hope that they come up with something because you should not have to live in pain like this. Do you plan on having more children? Do you get cysts on both ovaries or just on one ovary? Is it possible for you to see a gynecologist/oncologist (not that i think you have cancer) because they have more experience and they deal with issues like this on a daily basis. Best of luck to you. Hope you stick around and keep us informed on how you are doing.

There is a category of complex cysts called borderline ovarian tumors that frequently recur on the opposite ovary after being removed. Although they are a form of ovarian cancer, they usually behave in a benign fashion and fertility can be spared. Also, you wouldn't need chemo. But, you would need close follow-up to watch for recurrence. You are young and it is not common to have these types of tumors at your age.

Thick septations are more concerning than thin. And sometimes multiple cysts can look like one cyst with septations since imaging is not exact. Ovarian cancer is rare with the average woman's lifetime risk being less than 2% (1.3% per U.S. govt stats). It's good that the gynecologic oncologist isn't in a rush to do surgery. But it's concerning that he said he'll have to remove your ovary and tube.

I am pretty sure that Nabothian cysts are always on the cervix and I don. So I guess you have those cysts plus cysts on your ovaries. But keep in mind that ovarian cysts are a normal part of the menstrual cycle. Sometimes though they hang around longer than normal and, less rarely, they are problematic and need to be removed such as if they get too large or look suspicious.

I now have cysts on both ovaries the right being complex and totally encasing the ovary. I also have fibroid in my uterus. Does this mean a Hysterectomy?

After multiple tests (ultrasound, ct scan and MRI) I was told I have complex ovarian cysts 5×4 cm on both ovaries and pancreatic cyst that is over 1cm . I have 2 questions. 1. Since I very much refuse and will be refusing contraceptives , how else naturally can I cure ovarian cysts? 2. Can acidic taste in my mouth with coating on my tongue and lower back pain be due to pancreatic cyst?
