ovarian cysts forum

I think possibliy you mean ovarian cysts instead of ovarian fibriods as fibriods are assoicated with the Uterus and ovarian cysts are associated with the ovaries.

There is really not an expert forum for cysts., and the Ovarian Cancer Expert Forum only takes a few each day from those with Ovarian Cancer. There are no Medical professionals on the regular forums... just ladies that have or have had Ovarian Cysts or Ovarian Cancer depending on the forum.

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..

What is the difference between ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer.

Hi, What you might like to do is check out the top right of this page "Health Pages" . It has a lot of information about cysts. They're really common and 95 % benign.

There is a Forum just for Ovarian Cysts ..

There are different types of cysts, you can go to the link on the top of this page on the right that says health forum, and there is a list for all types of ovarian cysts. Did your dr. tell you what kind of cyst you have? Have you had a TV/US? During your reproductive years it is very common to get functional ovarian cysts that can disappear after a few menstrual cycles. Could it be your doctor is doing a watchful waiting to see if they go away? How long have you had the cyst?

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.

Most times when the cysts are the size of yours they will wait a month or two and redo the ultrasound to see if they have resolved. There is some good info on cysts on the health pages attached to this forum (top right). Good luck with everything.

I would not be concerned, but, I would go to the gyn and have it checked....probably nothing. There is a great forum for Ovarian Cysts. There are many fabulous women over there that can probably offer more guidence and support regarding cysts. This forum is mainly about Ovarian Cancer.

I am sorry that you are going through this. 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.

HI. How long has the cyst been there? When cysts are discovered the doctors will normally observe it for up to 3 months to see if it disappears itself, which a lot of cysts can. If it is causing severe pain, not resolving, or if it is suspicious in any way the cyst may be removed or drained. Most ovarian cysts are harmless.

m sorry you are having these problems, but you need to post this in the Ovarian Cyst forum rather than this forum which deals with cancer. If you look on the right side below the section of Community Members, you will find a link. The women on there all have or are experiencing cyst issues and can offer a wealth of experience and support. Good luck and I hope you can be pain free soon.

I would like to know if there is any genetic link between complex ovarian cysts and ovarian/breast cancer.I know there is sometimes a genetic link between ovarian/breast cancer.If anyone has any info i would apprieciate your replies.

I've been prone to ovarian cysts for 5years and am in near constant pain with them. I've tried different contraceptions, painkillers and keyhole surgery but they always return. My doctor said removing my ovary would be best but im too young- im only 21! My G.P is consulting with his senior for more options but I can't wait. Tests confirm they are abnormal cysts but cannot be operated on almost every month!
