1720730 tn?1309294631 i am 15 and i have had two very large ovarian cysts and i had my right ovary taken out last august and now i found out that i have another ovarian cyst on my left ovary and i am very scared what are some ways to treat it besides surgery it is a large hemorrhagic ovarian cyst.
Avatar n tn D and C or ablation is done for heavy periods resulting from endometrial hyperplasia and not for ovarian cysts. If you want to go the natural way then you can wait for a spontaneous regression of the ovarian cyst. This will require follow up with frequent ultrasound scans. Hope this helps. Take care and good luck.
1340383 tn?1309990914 I am trying to explore natural remedies for healing ovarian cysts..I have one (2.6 cm by 3.4 cm) on my left ovary and my Dr is suggesting birth control pills.. anyone heard of any herbs or food items to shrink cysts? Thanks!!
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 I have found in my practice, that if I suppress both cysts AND menstrual periods with depot Lupron, and it HELPS, then a hysterectomy likely will too. If is doesn't help, a hysterectomy likely won't. Chronic pain is very poorly understood, and has to do with how the nerves of the body "remember" pain. It also often leads to depression (not vice versa as many doctors would suggest).
222322 tn?1271022838 I am new to this board and to cyst. I have been doing some research on endometriosis and ovarian cysts (my own, I am not a dr). I think your diet changes and working out are great ideas. You could also try to eliminate dairy and alcohol. I am reading Christine Northrup's book about women's health and problems with our ovaries can be related to stress in our lives especially - being critical and controlling or being controlled and criticized by others.
Avatar f tn i tried the copper 7 IUD. AWFUL! made my periods heavy cysts worse and cramping to the point where i was in bed and didnt want to move. i thought my head was going to fall off. worse experience. but then again you may have a different experience.... but copper iud is known to make periods heavier ....
Avatar f tn Hi I just wondered if anybody has had a ovarian cyst and treated it with natural herbs instead of surgery. I was looking for an alternative method on internet and came a across a website called ****************.com that sold ovarian cysts kit and was wondering if anybody has tried it and what the outcome was.

Avatar f tn I had laparoscopy/hysteroscopy done feb last year for endometriosis. Well, they also discovered I had several severe ovarian cysts (they thought id need my right one removed), found 2 bilateral inguinal hernias, and a septum in my uterus. They said I couldnt get pregnant, wanted to schedule a hysterectomy (i was 21 btw), and I was devastated. 4 months later I found out I was pregnant.
Avatar n tn I believe in natural and alternative approach but you have to be carefull with who you are dealing with and whom you want to believe..I did two year research in this field and sometimes I am still unsure about these quick cures. There is no magic pill. If you want more info from me what I do for my ovarian cancer please respond to my private message center. Keep on smiling. Sunes.
Avatar f tn I am sorry you are going through this. I had an ovarian cyst and wish my gynecologist had taken a conservative approach. Instead, I was rushed into surgery and over-treated. Scar tissue is a real risk. And there are other risks such as losing the ovaries and their life-long vital functions. Or even if the ovaries are not removed, the surgery could affect their function.
Avatar n tn I've always had painful periods and lower back pain, I've been told I have 2 endrometrius cysts on my right ovary and can have it removed. I tried natural cures, but it's getting worse...I don't want surgery. Is there anyway to shrink them? Could it be something else causing THIS MUCH pain? (10 out of 10) for 2 "little" cysts. Are there tests I should ask for? I'm also scheduled for a colonoscopy and upper GI in 1 1/2 months...
Avatar n tn I have been suffering from Ovarian Cysts since I was 16 years old and I am 32 now. I had an oophorectomy at age 16 of the right side. I have two beautiful children but cannot get an acceptable quality of life because of these no warning episodes. Do you know of a natural remedy that I can use to eliminate and prevent future cysts from forming? My frequency is about 2 to 3 times a year.
Avatar f tn My doctor said that I developed some small ovarian cysts because I breastfed, and consequently didn't ovulate, for so long. This was four months ago, oh yeah we're also trying to conceive again, I am still having symptoms (pain during sex) though I'm pretty sure I had two of them burst, and still not pregnant. Has anyone else had this problem of developing ovarian cysts and have trouble conceiving after breastfeeding?
Avatar f tn Hi jojo, Why not come visit us on the Ovarian Cyst Forum. This forum is primarily for Ovarian Cancer and there probably will be more folks replying to you on the "cyst" forum. You could also check out the Hysterectomy Forum. I had my ovary removed when I had the cyst removed but I'm also post menopausal so it really isn't the same as it is for you.. Pop on over to the Ovarian Cyst forum and post this over there..
Avatar n tn The manufacturers made a lot of deceptive false claims about the miracle cures it could provide, including curing ovarian cysts. I would say the "side effects" would be wasted money and disappointment that there is no miracle cure...at least not from this product.
Avatar f tn At such a young age it can eb dermoid cyst which is a type of complex ovarian cyst and is the most common type and develops during the childbearing age. Complex ovarian cysts are generally benign. The risk of malignancy is generally higher among postmenopausal women. Most ovarian cysts disappear in 8 to 12 weeks. If they persist then before going in for surgery we can try the birth control pills also.
356929 tn?1246389756 Had abdominal CT scan in August (to check liver) and was told that I have fatty liver and ovarian cysts (minor notation on report). Side pain has gotten worse and enzymes still elevated. Had second abdominal CT scan to get a better look at liver and pancreas. Was told everything looked okay (still have fatty liver) but the ovarian cysts have grown.
Avatar f tn I have been tested and treated for things all the way from a yeast infection to a P.I.D. The pain just stays. I have been told that it could be small ovarian cysts that will just go away on their own. I'm worried. My boyfriend and I are considering trying for a baby possibly next year..Im worried that something is wrong. I have my annual exam in April and I will bring this up AGAIN... but I was hoping that someone may have some insight.
Avatar f tn The pain, an ovarian cyst can provide. But the bleeding? I've had a lot of ovarian cysts in my day and never once did any of them bleed. Bleeding like a period (or a little less) sounds like a progesterone drop for whatever reason. If the op's natural hormone levels shifted slightly downward, that could have caused a not-enough-progesterone situation that has caused the bleeding.
Avatar f tn I suffed from ovarian cysts since I was 14.. I'm 34 now and have just been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome.. though I haven't had a cyst that has caused me pain or discomfort in years.. The best thing to help combat and minimize the occurrence and severity of an ovarian cyst I found was exercise!! The release of serotonin somehow helps.. but I've become an avid Zumba goer and not only did it keep the cysts at bay, but it's a lot of fun..
Avatar f tn I have never had a problem with cysts, until I stopped taking birth control. I had pain on my right side and went for an ultrasound and they told me I have a few small cysts on the right and one had ruptured, but they were more concerned because I had one on my left ovary that is 2.8cm. I think this may have been caused by me abruptly stopping the pill a few months ago. My husband had a vasectomy so I figured why keep taking the pill, I didn't realize how much is would mess up my system.
Avatar n tn Hello, I am hoping that someone has had some experience with ovarian cysts and the use of birth control (nuva ring) to prevent ovulation. 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?
Avatar f tn Ovarian cysts can be benign or malignant but the majority (over 90%) are benign. A lot depends on your age and what type of cyst it is - functional, dermoid, etc. Your doctor hopefully will let you know if there is anything to be concerned about. You can google "ovarian cysts" to get more information so you know what questions to ask at your appointment. Please let us know how it goes.
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.
