Avatar f tn Hello... I know you are worried sick about now...I went through something similar except my surgeon scared the *@#&@ out of me! My CA-125 was 26 and I had a large ovarian cyst as well...So, here's the thing...Most ovarian cysts rupture and fire off their egg and/or reabsorb. There are always cysts being made that enclose the eggs while they reach maturity. The CA-125 test is cr@p for testing ovarian cancer because it is influenced by hormone levels...
Avatar f tn I was one of the lucky few who did happen to have a laparoscopy just to rule out anything serious, was found to have ovarian cancer, and was caught at stage 1C. I thank God for my doctors who wanted to be thorough! There's a good chance that nothing will be found, but why worry when you have the chance to find out for sure? Best wishes!
Avatar f tn Dear Bella, The first important decision is whether a person needs surgery or not. As most ovarian cysts are functional - that is related to the menstrual cycle - they will go away after a few menstrual cycles. For cysts that do not, go away, are greater than 4-5 cm, are causing pain, are associated with other finding (elevated CA 125, fluid in the abdominal, other tumors, etc) , look complex with both solid and cystic parts, and so on - surgical removal is the next step.
Avatar f tn I have researched about ovarian cysts and cancer trying to find out what are the best treatment options. Also, I had a second opinion and this doctor told me that with a laparoscopy it would be enough. At the same time, I am worried since I have no kids and if they remove everything I can't have any. So that's why I have joined this site and try to find some answers. Thanks for your help and I'll let you know what happens.
Avatar f tn I am a 21 year old female. I was diagnosed with two ovarian cysts that are thought to be cystadenomas back in January of this year. 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.

1620452 tn?1316536918 Has any one had a laparoscopy to remove cyst off the ovaries? and how long after can you TTC? Waiting for my RE to call me back but I felt the experts here :) will let me know first. Plus I will like to hear first had what to expect. SSBD!!!
1696352 tn?1318532367 Hi.Am 33 yrs old,i hve a 16months boyand i just had ovarian cysts removed by laparoscopy on the 3rd sept...my question is.,should i expect normal cycle after such procedure?my cycle's always 28-30 days.
Avatar f tn The period of recovery is for a month. Many times these ovarian cysts are benign, specially in pre-menopausal women like you and I. Like you, I don't have kids and I am concerned about the possibility of not being able to have kids. But let's hope for the best.
Avatar f tn s not a bad idea to have the lap done if all other tests come back normal. With a lap, they can see things like ovarian cysts or polyps that an ultrasound can't see. I just had my lap done a month ago, and nothing was found, but it's best to rule that out. Good luck!!
Avatar f tn But, at 37, I had a complex cyst that was ovarian cancer. You really have to take each cyst on their own and follow the guidelines for treatment. If your cyst is complex and over 5cm then it needs to be surgically removed. Otherwise, watching and waiting is often an option. Also, if endometriosis is a problem for you and you can take birth control pills...that is often a very effective treatment.
Avatar n tn There is a regrowth pattern with ovaries it is called Ovarian Remmanet Syndrome May I suggest you to the forum for ovarian cysts there you will get the answers you need, there are other women there that have ORS any small piece of the ovary that is left after the surgery can regenerate the tissue and cysts can grow on them. This needs to be followed up because ovarian cancer can also be generated from these growths.
Avatar n tn I have a history of ovarian cysts as large as 10cm and have had 2 surgeries in the past with one surgery involving removal of my right ovary. After being infertile for 8 years, I did get preganant after that and had 2 children. For 8 years after, I have had no symptoms or pain. In May/June the pain/discomfort came back. Had ultrasound and had 2 cysts. One 5cm, the other one 3 cm. The small one was complex with 10 compartments and the doctor didn't like it.
Avatar f tn hi!...i am 25 yrs. old and have found out that i have ovarian cysts. My ultrasound result is this: There are two, closely apposed complex cystic pelvoabdominal masses, more to the right, each cyst measures 10 x 7.7 cms. and 9x6.9 cms. A complex cystic mass is also noted at the left adnexa measuring about 7 x 4.3 cms. Impression: Complex cystic masses as described probably due to bilateral ovarian dermoid. the cysts on the right may represent a single mass with loculation and lobulated contour.
