Avatar f tn Have you been diagnosed with PCOS? This condition causes the acne, weight gain and cysts. It is important to follow up with your doctor to see if you have this condition. It may help you avoid future cysts if you get treatment now. Often, hormones can be out of balance without PCOS and it causes those same symptoms. Usually, birth control pills are recommended to try to get your hormones regulated in cases where your system is out of balance.
Avatar n tn Although it’s not known for sure whether benign ovarian cysts or polycystic ovaries develop into ovarian cancer, the vast majority of ovarian cysts appear to be unrelated. Women who have polycystic ovaries or ovarian cancer seldom have obvious symptoms early on. However, in both disorders, symptoms are noticed as the condition progresses. Because the ovaries are affected on both disorders, the some of the symptoms can be similar.
2129701 tn?1335494396 The name "polycystic ovarian syndrome" sems to be somewhat misunderstood. The "polycystic" aspect refers to the multiple ("poly") mini-cyst-like feature of the outer ovary, which, due to this defacto thickening of the tissue, can prevent an ovum from erupting from the ovary. I have had PCOS my whole life, but have never had a singular cyst on one of my ovaries, of the sort that is large enough to be palpated, or cause pain.
Avatar f tn Although you do have some classic PCOS symptoms (absence of periods, excessive facial hair, scalp hair thinning, acne, tendency to gain weight), it could be some other type of endocrine or metabolic disorder such as thyroid, pituitary or adrenal. An ultrasound may be helpful too to see if you have the cysts associated with PCOS that are in a "strand of pearls" pattern. However, I have heard of women having many symptoms of PCOS without having the ovarian cysts.
Avatar n tn Hi there I have been having hip pain for over a year on and off and finally found out what was wrong but to make sure there was no damage to any tissue I had an MRI done. It came back clear for hip damage but the accidently (but suppose luckily) picked up ovarian cysts. I don't know how many, what ovary, or if it both or even the size as the doctor I saw was a paedetric joint specially not a gyno and could tell me anything else except they were there.
1295419 tn?1276822872 In the last 8 weeks I have had 3 ovarian cysts rupture. The first two were shortly before my period started and caused intense pain which landed me in the ER. The last was yesterday, which was also painful and a trip to the ER. I haven't started my period yet but I assume I will soon. I had one other ovarian cyst rupture in my lifetime which was about 6 months after going off birth control and 6 months before getting pregnant. I have so many of the PCOS symptoms.
Avatar f tn You have stiff neck? RA symptoms? Chronic hadaches? stomach and bowell issues? ovarian cysts or a hysterstomy? brain "fog", vertigo, anxiety? If so your Fibro might be in fact a mycoplasma infection or possibly Lymes. Can you give me a full report of your symptoms? Search www.immed.org and look under AI diseases/chronic illness.
Avatar f tn I am sorry that you had to go through so much. I think you should get back to your doctor and get those cysts checked. Also try to get the D&C repeated. If you got symptoms, they need to be taken care of.
Avatar f tn Hi I’m 22 and have two children . I have frequent big ovarian cysts I have had cystectomys 3 times in the past 3 years. They are extremely painful and I still have no answer as to why I get them so frequent and how can I help preventing them . I have tried many different birth controls and I went even with out. I have not had a period in a long time like a year not at all .
Avatar f tn I think it would be wise to see your gynecologist and ask for a transvaginal ultrasound to rule out ovarian cysts. They can cause the symptoms you describe. He/she may be able to prescribe some medication that will help regulate your hormones or shrink the cysts. Also, have you had your blood sugar checked? You should ask your doctor about the HgA1c blood test rather than just a fasting glucose.
Avatar m tn Erm I just got told hemaroid? I think! They're not doing anything apart from monitoring it but I can't explain the horrendous pain I'm in when I get one if my pains! It needs sorting but I don't know what todo next!
Avatar f tn Insulin resistance and altered FSH/LH ratio can be the only indication of PCOS. Ovarian cysts may not always be present. Weight loss will be beneficial PCOS or no PCOS and hence you should not stop your dietary modification and regular exercise. Consult your Doctor for an evaluation. Hope this helps. The answer is based on information provided. Exact advice is not possible without a proper examination and investigations. You are requested to consult your Doctor. Take care and keep us posted.
Avatar f tn I went to see and endocrinologist because my last reading was 4.68 and I keep having issues with ovarian cysts. My GYN wanted to make sure it was not PCOS because my sister has it. My other sister is hypothyroid and she is active and states that she feels awful when her TSH is greater than 2. I am just wondering if some are more sensitive to hormone fluctuations than others? I have never had an issue with ovarian cysts or fatigue before. This is not me...
Avatar f tn suggested you do ? Ovarian Cysts and ovarian cancer can cause many similar symptoms. There is absolutely no way to tell for certain unless and until surgery is performed and the path results come back. Having said that, cysts are very very common and 95% benign. The best course of action is to speak with your physician to see what his recommended course of action is. They may possibly suggest removal, but sometimes, they prefer to wait awhile to see if they resolve themselves.
Avatar f tn This imbalance can cause changes in the menstrual cycle, acne, hirsutism (AKA a lot of hair where there is usually only a minimum amount like on the back), ovarian cysts, and infertility. Those with PCOS are also at an increased risk of developing insulin resistance (will have high blood sugar) which can lead to diabetes. It depends on your particular case as to how you will be treated. For instance, I take metformin and spironolactone.
1356258 tn?1277664250 I had several ultrasounds before my gallbladder removal surgery last year, and they said that my ovaries looked normal (gyno always says they feel normal, too). So is it possible to have PCOS without ovarian cysts? Would they be visible on an ultrasound? Do the cysts come and go? Or from the ultrasound can I rule out PCOS and focus on other possibilities? I wonder if I have Cushing's syndrome, as I also have what I think is a buffalo hump and my face may be moon-shaped.
Avatar n tn Some of the causes of irregular periods are ovarian cysts, stress, anemia, and hormonal disorders like thyroid and adrenal malfunction. Please consult your OBGYN as soon as possible as exact cause can be identified only after a clinical examination and tests like ultrasound and blood test. Take care!
Avatar n tn Hello, Yours ymptoms are suggestive of polycystic ovarian syndrome(PCOS). PCOS causes cysts to form on the ovaries, interfering with regular ovulation. Symptoms of this syndrome include: excessive hair growth, weight gain,irregular menstrual cycle, acne, dandruff, high blood pressure, and infertility. Left untreated, it can lead to other more serious complications, including endometriosis, heart disease, and ovarian cancer.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have a couple of questions about ovarian cyst symptoms. Do ovarian cysts cause mid cycle spotting and lower back pain? And if so how common are these symptoms?
Avatar f tn Do ovarian cyst symptoms and ovarian cancer symptoms look the same? I ask because I have the following: -gas -bloat/distended stomach -pressure -changes in BM's (constipation and diarrhea) -get full easily after eating -tired/fatigues -heartburn/indigestion -changes in menstruation Thank you.
Avatar m tn When my doc performed an ultrasound she found several cysts on my ovaries and concluded that I had the beginning signs of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome(PCOS). This syndrome can cause anxiety, depression, acne, weight gain, fluctuation in hormone levels (hot flashes), and pain in your lower abdominal around your ovaries (mine was just the left too).
Avatar f tn I started having symptoms about 2 weeks prior to last period and they have not subsided. Nausea, headaches, acne, very swollen heavy breasts (but not sore), swollen stomach, tiredness, weight gain and twinges or cramplike feelings in my upper abdomen just under my rib cage. Sometimes on the right side, left and middle of upper abdomen. No soreness in back, legs, or lower abdomen. No shoulder pain and no pain with intercourse.

256161 tn?1196879046 I know lyme causes all kinds of different cysts. I'm not sure about the ovarian cysts though as they are quite common in women in general. Flagyl is a cyst buster so if you have lyme you may feel the herx reaction.
