Avatar n tn MRI following an ultrasound is not routine, no. Checking back 3 years is not routine, either. I don't understand the logic of that at all. The only time I've heard of doctors checking previous films was to check previous mammograms, not previous ovarian ultrasounds (at least not 3 years back). It's not just the sizes of cysts that matter, what about the nature of these cysts?
Avatar f tn Has anyone downloaded the book "Ovarian Cysts No More" and used the program? Is it a scam or is it worth trying? I have a very large cyst and my appointment with the surgeon is still two weeks away. I am desperate to do anything in the meantime that could help shrink this cyst.
Avatar n tn Let us know a little more .. And if you have cysts ,there is an Ovarian Cyst forum where you may get more information.
Avatar f tn No need to panic. Ovarian cysts are very common and most resolve on their own, no intervention needed. And even ones that don't resolve are almost always benign. 3.8cm is still on the small side so may very well go away in the next couple of months. If you don't have a copy of your CT scan report, you may want to obtain a copy before next week's appointment. Let us know what you find out from your doctor.
Avatar f tn Hi there, Many of the symptoms you list are applicable to both conditions. I had bilateral ovarian masses and I had every symptom you list above and more. I also had pelvic pain, back pain, irregular periods to name a few. My ovaries were filled with hemorrhagic cysts, serous cysts, endometriomas and a large mucinous cystadenoma. Just a downright mess all around. How are you doing?
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 f tn You may like to post on the Ovarian Cyst forum and there will be many more people in similar situations that can give you advice. Also on the Ovarian cyst forum, there is a Health page that discusses different types of cysts and common treatment that may be helpful. Ovarian Cancer is actually quite rare and only 1% of cysts turn out to be malignant cancers. So you should look at this and feel confident that you will be in the 99% with a benign condition that will be easily resolved.

Avatar f tn So I saw her on Tuesday, the pain was still a 7, bleeding, no bowel movements and painful to pee. She got concerned about my appendix, did CT, ab ultrasound, vag ultrasound, then upper ab ultrasound after fluid was seen. She started me on a serious dose of anti-biotics until she could review all the scans. Today she said I have bilateral complex cysts, blood in my tummy and some free flowing complex fluid.
Avatar m tn The patient is 20 years old, no children, and the picture of a healthy lifestyle, and no family history of cancer or ovarian problems. I'm trying to find a website where I can find a radiologist that might take a look at the images for me and give me their impression. Any suggestions on this? I wonder if doctors or radiologists ever review this site? Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
1667689 tn?1303337973 Many of these things are intermitten and not constant so I have not been too worried. They are becoming more frequent, I am still assuming that this is just an ovarian cyst but just don't know how urgent it is for me to get it checked out. Currently, I have no health insurance which makes the matter a little more difficult. I am looking into some of the clinics that take patients with no insurance in my area.
Avatar f tn It's hard to believe that cysts can cause that much pain and discomfort, huh? Well, unfortunately for us, they can. At least you already know that they're just regular fluid filled cysts and still rather small. You need to talk to your doctor to see what medication is right to help shrink them. He/she is going to have to monitor them and schedule for an ultrasound every so often to see if they are in fact shrinking or growing.
20831008 tn?1527294114 CT Scan showed cysts that could be hemmoragic. US showed no normal ovarian tissue. Gynecologist guessed dermoid cyst. MRI with and without contrast thinks fibrous or other low grade neoplastic etiology. This is a joke right? Gun wants to take both ovaries. I said I will call you. I am not going to do anything. Can you tell I don't trust the medical establishment?
Avatar f tn A related discussion, <a href="/posts/Ovarian-Cysts/pcos--PCOD/show/1862986">pcos/ PCOD</a> was started.
Avatar f tn Okay, I found out on the 6th of December that I have ovarian cysts, they sent the results to my doctor as 'Urgent'. I received a letter saying they've referred me to a gynaecologist for 'further review'. From doing research, I know they're only going to send me away with an Ultrasound appt for one months time to see if they're still there.. But like, I've had this pain for ages.
483733 tn?1326798446 m seeing a lot of new forum members posting the same questions on both the Ovarian Cancer and Ovarian Cysts forums. There is no need to do this. Just post on the Ovarian Cyst forum as you are going through your testing and diagnosis, etc. and then on the Ovarian Cancer forum only if, God forbid, you not one of the 95% benign club. Many of the members on this forum and many on the Ovarian Canacer forum visit both and will ensure your questions will be addressed.
4957231 tn?1361631734 (I am guessing that you mean your hemoglobin when you say your iron level--if not, forgive me) Pertaining to the ovarian cysts--I would want to review the ultrasound films looking for characteristics of malignancy or endometriosis. I would probably order a ca 125 or ova-1 blood test for ovarian cancer. Depending upon the results of the above, I would probably want to review your case with a gyn oncologist. Surgery will probably be in your future.
1550253 tn?1359048669 I've always had menstrual issues...it comes with the territory of having PCOS and hypothyroidism. But I am on birth control to regulate my periods...but even then, my periods are still a bit wacky, it seems. Like, right now...I was supposed to have my period this week...but it hasn't shown up yet at all and I'm starting my new pack today. But that happens often...where my period won't show up until a couple days into the new pack.
Avatar f tn I am not a medical professional so I can't answer your question for sure BUT I can tell you that back in January I had missed some of my birth control pills and I began to get sick. Pain, Nauseous, some blood, ect.... after the ultra sound it was determined that I had a cyst on my ovary. I would guess that is what is wrong with you. I know that it is hard but try to relax and not think to much on it until tomorrow when you see the Dr. and get your test results.
Avatar f tn I am a 47 year old mom of 3 boys, ages 6, 10 and 12. Last month I had a pelvic ultrasound and was told I have 2 complex ovarian cyst on my right ovary. I wasn't too concerned about it until I "googled" complex ovarian cysts..then I became terrified of ovarian cancer. My GP has scheduled a follow -up ultrasound next Monday (4weeks from the first u/s) I dont't know the size of the cysts or any other details at this point.
Avatar f tn Hi There, I know this sounds simplistic but if you have completed your child bearing, you should consider a surgical intervention to remove part of the cysts or the whole uterus and ovarian cysts if they are really complicated. It sounds like you have been getting an evaluation. You should sit down with the doctor and review all the reports and options.
Avatar m tn The fact that they have now deemed your cancer micro-invasive, it likely behaves more like a low grade carcinoma which is more worrisome. I would wait to see what the review committee says about treatment. But, if for some reason you aren't seeing a gynecologic oncologist, please find one right away. There are others on this board who have had that diagnosis. Hopefully, they will come along and answer and can give you first hand experience.
Avatar n tn I am scheduled to be operated of ovarian cysts and the oncologist told me that first they had to take a biopsy of the affected ovary and then take like 10 or 12 more biopsies to get checked and not take any risks. Hope this helps.
1034241 tn?1252721169 I am waiting on results of CA125 but the dr thinks it is just a simple cyst and if the CA125 is negative just watch it. My concerns are the fact that I have an ovarian cyst with no ovary. And that I am being tested for ovarian cancer. HOW CAN THESE THINGS HAPPEN after a Hysterectomy? ANY IDEAS LADIES?????????????? I am waiting.........
