Hi everyone. I'm very much a 'worrier' so sorry if my questions make your eyes roll :)
I'm a 25 year old female with no children who is overweight (5'5, 200lbs). I have a family history of cysts and PCOS but no cancer. When I was about 20, I had a functional ovarian cyst diagnosed via internal ultrasound (not sure how big it was).
My advice would be to make an appointment with an OB/GYN for a preconception consultation. They can answer your questions about ovarian cancer and help you ttc. It's great to build a good relationship with your OB before pregnancy, and that way if you don't think that is who you want caring for you, you can find a good one before you conceive.
well, first off you need to see your dr and find out how big it is. I had one rupture a few weeks ago myself and still have 2 on my right ovary. i have to have follow up ultrasound in 5 weeks to see if they are taking care of themselves, otherwise my dr is going to put me on bc to shrink them. You need to find out the size of cysts and what type of ovarian cyst it is. That will all make a difference on how they are taken care of.
t need to be on the pill to help prevent ovarian cysts. Well, I have stopped the pill again, about year after my second surgery. I have been feeling a lot of pain again on my right ovary. I am wondering if I have developed another cyst/follicle. It has only been about two weeks after stopping the pill. I am not sure if it is scar tissue that causes the pain, or maybe the pain is due to the fact that I am ovulating again. Or, like I said, maybe I have another cyst.
Has anyone ever been on the pill for many years and been diagnosed with pcos WHILE on the pill?
And has any developed cysts while on the pill?
I've been reading that the pill should prevent women from developing functional cysts, or that it's rare to develop a functional cyst because you shouldn't ovulate while on the pill. I know you can ovulate on the pill, but it shouldn't be a recurring thing.
The thing is , that ovarian cysts are a normal part of ovulation. If you didn't ovulate, you wouldn't have cysts but you wouldn't have pregnancies either. If you google "Ovarian Cysts 101", it will explain a lot . There is also a lot of information on our "Health Pages" at the top right of this page.
I sure wish there were some nutritional answers, but I don't think we're going to find any.. If you find an answer, please share !
HiI have been having irregular periods for almost a year and the last 6 months it has got worse and I put weight on. I have periods all the time. I went to see a doc and she recommended having an ultrasound as the last month or 2 I'm constantly bloated, constipation which I've never had till now, constant back ache at the bottom of my back,pressure during sex and really uncomfortable feeling in my left area.
Definitely sounds like ovarian cyst pain, I'm amazed you put up with it this long. Hasn't your doctor done *anything,* like put you on the pill to try to shrink it? I'd go see him tomorrow effing morning and say you absolutely need to have this dealt with.
This includes endometriomas and functional ovarian cysts. You need to consult your gynaecologist for these two types of cysts. If you are premenopausal and are concerned about recurrent cysts, taking a birth control pill or other hormonal form of birth control may help to prevent ovarian cysts from developing
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
I agree with everyone else. I was told that ovarian cancer is extremely rare in younger women - it mostly affects menopausal women. I've had many cysts. I have other issues, but I was never told that the cysts themselves would affect my fertility. The cyst will probably go away on it's own, or they may put on you the birth control pill to make it shrink. I've had cysts as large as 10cm, and did not need surgery to remove them.
Same situation as you here. Pain was dreadful but the cyst isn't big. Doctors will do surgery if you have been on the pill for a while (first stage of treatment) and are having severe pain that is affecting your life. I would just make sure that you are clear to your doctor about how bad the pain is and talk to them about your concerns.
3 cm i think) so i was put on the pill. 2 months later the cyst leaked and i ended up going ot my Ob the next day. come to find out another cyst had formed on my left ovary. only this cyst is bigger then a golf ball. I was then given the Depo shot to hopefully reduce the size/ get rid of the cyst all together. i am a month and a half into having the shot in my system and i feel horrible. I am often in a lot of pain with constant what feel like period cramps. but worse right where the cyst is.
Birth-control pills shrink some types of ovarian cysts, presumably you have that type or the doctor would not have prescribed them. I am sorry you are impatient, but it will help to get rid of the cysts if you are trying to conceive, even if it means you have to wait a month or two. I don't know if you cannot ovulate when you have a cyst, but it sure would be a painful thing and probably it does prevent ovulation when a cyst is present.
