Avatar f tn I got on birth control (progestin) and it helped me regulate my period and I stopped getting them but I stop so the cyst came back. When they cane back it seemed to happen like back to back ruptures. Now I’m have serve lower back pain. Is this possible?
Avatar m tn Yes, it can be. Ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and other conditions can all cause back pain.
Avatar n tn Nope ovarian cysts don't cause back pain. I had ovarian cysts and most of my pain was where the ovaries were.
Avatar n tn My doctor started me on the nuva ring in hopes that it would help with the pain from bilateral ovarian simple cysts that measure 5cm and 4.2 cm. If anyone has experience with this type of treatment please respond to the following questions. Does birth control help with the pain from ovarian cysts? Does using birth control help ressolve the existing cysts? How long does it take for birth control to show progress in pain and resolution of ovarian cysts?
Avatar f tn had the ct scan yesterday and they found nothing. No kidney stones, appendix looks ok and no ovarian cysts. I feel like I am back to square one! Went straight back to the doctors in the afternoon and she is puzzled. She said she wants to look at the ct scan/analysis herself and to see me again on Monday. She's given me some extra pain killers and told me to take the following. 8x paracetamol, 3x diclofenac, 4-8 codeine a day.
Avatar n tn What you are describing can be symptoms for many things. These can include ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. Since it is pretty rare for women your age to have ovarian cancer and since more than 95% of all cysts are benign let's asssume you are dealing with a cyst. I had all the symptoms you are describing and had benign cysts. You should check out the health pages (top right) and look at the listing for types of cysts and symptoms.
11091907 tn?1415221745 Been to the doctor and they gave me some pain meds and scheduled me for another ultrasound to determine when the surgery is. I have not felt pain like this since I was diagnosed. Sometimes it hurts so bad to even walk. Not sure what to do. Called the doctor and they told me to keep going to the ER to get the cycts looked at. Don't know how much more of this pain I can take.
Avatar n tn What is the difference between ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. I haven't had a period for 3 months now and I have a sharp pain in my lower right side, as well as back pain, especially in the mornings. once in a while i am off balance when walking. i am bloated, and a lot of times i don't have an appetite.
Avatar f tn I get abdominal pain, back pain, pain on my thighs, bloating and nausea. However, what really affects my daily life is the fatigue. I am always very tired, I feel like everything aches and just want to sleep. I work but lack the energy to go through an entire day without feeling I need to sleep! Is anyone else experiencing fatigue... similar symptoms?
Avatar f tn 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?
Avatar f tn As soon as it was done the tech said we are going to show this to the radiologist and be right back. After sometime she came back and said we found no damage around your bladder but you do have a cyst on your ovary that is almost twice the size of your ovary. She said the radiologist would be calling my doctor this am with this information. Now I have always heard that ovarian cysts are not cancerous. Am I wrong? Can they be?
Avatar f tn I have had lower pain in my left side and around my back for 5 days. It feels like gas but took medicine and did not help. it hurts when i eat and then have to go to bathroom what could this be?
1068834 tn?1294009992 I was considering that it could be an intestinal blockage and the low abdominal and back pain is due to a nerve. It will be interesting to see what you are diagnosed with. Good luck !
Avatar f tn Mostly they are symptomless But Ovarian cysts can, however, cause problems if they twist, bleed, or rupture. Most ovarian cysts will go away on their own. One of the most effective treatments for ovarian cysts is use of contraceptive pills or progesterone pills. It can also be treated surgically and this procedure is known as drilling. Other modes of treatment are laparoscopic surgery, laparotomy or surgery for complicated ovarian cysts.
Avatar f tn I went into the ER last week because of excruitiating pain and a blood test revealed a high creatinine level. Today I was diagnosed with hydronephrosis and hydroureter via ultrasound with no known obstruction. I have read that hydronephrosis could be a sign of pelvic cancers. Should I be worried about cancer considering I have both the cysts and the hydronephrosis now?
Avatar f tn Unfortunately, I cannot comment on anything but the ovarian cysts. Cysts are very common and most resolve on their own. If yours are not large (over 7 cm or so) and you do not have a predisposition for / family history of ovarian cancer, then they can usually be monitored via periodic ultrasound.
Avatar n tn i have had lower back pain every now and then. sometimes it is on the lower left and then a few days later it may go tot eh right hand lower side. i worry about ovarian cancer, although there is no history of., wondering if this is just pre menopausal symptoms. thanks This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/279737'>Stomach bloating with low back pain & cramps</a>.
Avatar n tn She is now 16 and had to go to the emergency room last weekend for abdominal pain and other symptons. They did an MRI and found an ovarian cyst(s). Is is possible that this HPV Vaccine caused this?

556467 tn?1225377691 I feel stupid asking this but can ovarian cysts cause severe lower back pain and abdominal cramping even after a partial hysterectomy? A CT scan (to look at liver b/c of pain under right side rib cage and elevated liver enzymes) showed bilateral cysts on both ovaries. I am scheduled to see my Gyn and have a US on Nov. 3rd. The pain is getting worse and I didn't know if I should try to see the Gyn sooner or if this might be something different going on. Any info would be appreciated.
Avatar n tn I have pain in my lower back and sides that seems to be making me nauseous, my stomach is a little irritated as well which is making it worse. The pain is dull and constant, and is made worse by moving. I did take some Tylenol yesterday, but it was only 2 pills, this has been going on since yesterday but is a bit worse today. I was working Friday and yesterday and was standing on my feet most of the day.
Avatar f tn I know with my cyst I had pain down my leg and around my back. It became so bad that I couldn't walk and had to go into my doctors office (this happened one week ago) and she admitted me and did the surgery that night. If you click on the Health Pages link to the top right of this discussion with the orange logo and then click on the types of ovarian cyst page it will give you all of the types of cysts as well as the symptoms.
256161 tn?1196879046 I know lyme causes all kinds of different cysts. I'm not sure about the ovarian cysts though as they are quite common in women in general. Flagyl is a cyst buster so if you have lyme you may feel the herx reaction.
Avatar f tn These anatomical / skeletal changes cause chronic back, hip, and rib cage problems and pain. Bladder and bowel function can also be affected since they are separated and held in place by the uterus. My bowels have been "messed up" since surgery. Has your endometriosis diagnosis been confirmed with exploratory surgery and biopsy? Have you had (or considered having) the endo excised by an endometriosis specialist?
Avatar f tn I have pain in the lower right side up to my back around my kiddney area and down into my inner thigh and with pain meds I am still hurting. Should I wait or get a third opion?
763734 tn?1249384736 I am post menopausal and have been recently diagnoised with an enlarged ovary/ovarian cysts on the left side. Yes, I have pelvic presssure pain and constant, cronic lower back pain. My only relief is a heating pad. My doctor is taking a watching waiting approach. Both my nipples became errect and super sensitive. On my left areola a small bump appeared right next to my nipple. My doctor said it was not related to my ovarian cyst. She told me to schedule a diagnostic mammogram and ultra sound.
