Avatar n tn We were without health insurance for 3 years and she just had a exam. The doctor had ordered a ultrasound and found 2 cysts one 4cm and one 2, the doctor called and suggested she return in 4 months for another ultrasound. They office was searching for film done 3 years ago and after reviewing a previous ultrasound he ordered a MRI with Contrast...
Avatar n tn Most ovarian cysts are benign and resolve on their own. Hopefully by now you have more info from the other images. What more did you find out?
Avatar n tn When having an ultrasound, what does it mean when the ovary and the cyst are deep black? cyst is 3cm and ovary is enlarged. Is there a site I can go to to see pictures of ovarian cysts and their diagnosis?
Avatar f tn Most MRIs of the abdomen also shoot images of the pelvic area, and if they did, then it would have shown ovarian cysts if they were there at the time of the MRI. However the best test for diagnosis is an ultrasound. So as your gynecologist has advised you can get a repeat ultrasound done. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar f tn If someone had Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, would the cysts be visable on an ultrasound?
Avatar f tn Sorry you are dealing with this! MOST ovarian cysts are benign including ones that look suspicious. If you do not have a genetic predisposition for ovarian cancer then your lifetime chances of getting it are very slim (less than 2%). I had a similar cyst although mine was larger - 9.5cm. It had some solid matter and some septations. Characteristics that are concerning are thick walls, thick septations, solid components, "finger-like" projections, ascites.
Avatar f tn A transvaginal ultrasound will give your doctor accurate images of your ovaries. Good luck and please keep us posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn The second time which was approximately one week ago they did not do an ultrasound, but told her the pain was due to a cyst on her ovaries. My concerns are could she have ovarian cancer-one of my friends daughters died at the age of 27 due to ovarian cancer. Please advise.
Avatar f tn Most ovarian cysts are benign. 98% are benign. A woman has a 1.4% of eve getting ovarian cancer. Less if you are under 50.
Avatar f tn 1) The paratubal cyst is unrelated to the ovarian cysts, and is something that you were probably born with but which enlarged at some point for reasons that we do not understand 2) Regarding your ovarian cysts, what was the pathology? If they were follicle or corpus luteum cysts, then these are what we call 'physiologic' cysts. Physiologic cysts develop in women every month as the egg matures and is released, and usually are not greater than 25 mm (about one inch) in diameter.
Avatar f tn after an ultrasound tech completed an ultrasound I was taken back to my dr who reviewed the multiple ultrasound images, and confirmed I had two large ovarian cysts on my left ovary. One was a follicular cyst, which she was not concerned with operating on at this time, because follicular cysts can come and go, However the dermoid cyst measuring 103 cm3, would need to be removed. I was scheduled two weeks later to have it removed.
Avatar n tn Multiple transabdominal and endovaginal images through the pelvis were obtained. The uterus is retroverted, measures 9 x 5.7 x 6.1 cm and homegeneous in echo texture. There are a few cystic structure in the cervical area noted. The endometrial stripe is thickned measure 20 mm, may relate to patient mentrual cycle. The right ovary is slightly prominent measured 3.9 x 2.7 x 2.3 cm, a septated 2.2 x 1.6cm right ovarian cyst noted. The left ovay is within normal limits, measured 3.9 x 2.
Avatar f tn I went to my doctor yesterday, she told me that there's nothing on the ultrasound to suggest cancer. She said but to be on the safe side, she did a blood test (I think CA 125). She said she doesn't think there's anything to worry about but she said since I'm a big worry wart (she said she never met anyone like me before, always worrying) that if I wanted her to, she would remove the ovary with the big cyst but she doesn't think it's medically necessary.
Avatar f tn I'm in the same boat as you and I am planning to consult with a gyno as soon as I can. I am spotting constantly, pinkish reddish -every time I wipe. According to an ultrasound I had on Monday I have "one" 2ish cm ovarian cyst on my right ovary. Weird thing is, my ultrasound shows four black blobs around that ovary but she's only calling one a cyst, weird. LOL. I also have a fibroid. On all the u/s images it looks like my IUD is curved into my cervix.
570306 tn?1222713377 Regarding the cyst, if it is an ovarian cyst, typically simple cysts (i.e. no solid components on loculations) can be observed if they are small (less than 4-6 cm diameter). Cysts other than simple cysts generally require surgery. There can be differences between the CT scan and the ultrasound, and having your provider discuss the case with the radiologist may be helpful.Ultrasounds are usually more sensitive for picking up walls or sepatations between cysts.
Avatar f tn I had an ultrasound, a transvaginal ultrasound, and a CT scan. My gynecologist said it was ovarian and I knew it was ovarian before then and had many symptoms such as abdominal bloating, constipation, and rectal pain. My obgy/oncologist/surgeon would not say I had ovarian cancer for sure until after the surgery to remove the mass, which turned out to be stage IIIc ovarian cancer (and I had a hysterectomy too).
Avatar n tn Hi there. It is possible the pain could be due to cysts. I've never heard of a connection to coffee though. Do see your gyn and have a transvaginal ultrasound to be sure. Good luck!
Avatar f tn I only assume I have PCOS because my hormones are out of whack and I have ovarian cysts. My symptoms have been going on for 10+ years and no doctor ever diagnosed me with this condition or even mentioned it. I have been struggling for the last 2+ years with severe health problems and was recently diagnosed with insulin resistance (metabolic syndrome). Make sure your doctor is very informative about this condition. Ask lots of questions.
Avatar m tn Breast cysts are usually easily defined by mammogram or ultrasound. Ovarian cysts are not related to breast cysts or to cysts in any other part of the body. Regards ....
Avatar m tn That being said, fibroids are common and usually require no intervention. The same for ovarian cysts. However, ovarian cysts usually go away within 3 cycles / months. So another ultrasound in a couple of months or so would be the typical plan. But your doctor should be communicating with you.
Avatar n tn After a couple of weeks of antibiotics The pain never went way, he sent me for an ultrasound. everything looked ok on the ultrasound, except a small cyst on my left ovary. He put me on birth control pills but nothing happend i was still having pelvic pain. He sent me to see a colon specialist and a colonoscopy was done and everything looked ok. A laparoscopy was done and he drained several cyst on my left ovary. my laparoscopy was done November 11, 2008.
Avatar f tn Could I have ovarian cancer!! I have been having symptoms that started with a dull ache on the left side of my ribs at the bottom, then bloating and finding it difficult to breath, backpains and fatigue all symptoms on and off throughout the day.. I had numerous tests and my doctor suggested I took the Ca 125 test results came back abnormal and slightly raised. Months later I took a pelvic ultrasound and the doctor says my ovaries look clear!!
Avatar f tn Then in sept they found a cyst during my annual female exams on the vaginal ultrasound. It did show on ct in october but my impression after speaking with the oncologist is that they show up better on ultrasound.
Avatar f tn Hello and thanks for reading. I am currently almost 9 weeks pregnant and during a transvaginal ultrasound a solid 2.2 cm mass was seen on my ovary. Now of course i'm freaking out and have already diagnosed myself with ovarian cancer cause I don't know what else could cause a solid mass.
