At most, my period may be slighter lighter, but not much lighter. I have a blood filled ovarian cyst, which makes my period irregular anyway, I don’t really have any symptoms of pregnancy other than fatigue, and I feel like I’m gaining weight- But, I am on my period now.

I have had unprotected sex but it has been three or four months, and as I said I have had fairly normal menstrual cycles since then, this includes normal cramping.
I should add that my partner withdrew, he did not ejaculate inside of me.

about 3 weeks ago i had really bad pain in my lower back. I went to the doctor and they said i probably pulled the muscle. Now yesterday I went back for a pain right by my appendix and ovary and it turned out i ahd an ovarian cyst that had ruptured. Could this be the cause of my lower back pain even though my back pain started 3 weeks earlier? And would it also affect the back of my thighs too?

thx

and please give me serious answers
and im 13 and have been getting my period for like a year and 9 months

I am 26yrs old, 5′7" tall and weigh 330 lbs! I’ve gained at least 100 lbs since I got married 5 years ago but I was always heavy. We are wanting to have children but haven’t been able to and doctors say it’s due to my weight. I have always had problems with my period and after I got married I was told I had a small ovarian cyst and was told it was normal. I was always given some kind of birth control to regulate my periods and to get rid of the cyst. Doctors suck and never seem to be able to fix me… I have been trying to lose weight since high school, but I just keep gaining it. I don’t think I have bad eating habits because I am scared of getting diabetes or high cholesterol because it runs in my family, so I am a bit more careful about what I eat. I had a physical done at the hospital to check everything and I am very healthy, the only problem is my weight and I don’t know what to do about it. Doctors just say eat healthy and exercise and I do but no results. I don’t even like food… I am rarely hungry and when I do eat, it’s not much. I am always feeling tired and without energy. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I’m just tired of being like this… I’m tired of the doctors that don’t tell me anything, I don’t know what to do, any ideas, or advice would help…

I don’t drink soda and don’t eat many sweets. I rarely eat pastas or processed foods because everything I buy must be kosher. I never eat out because I don’t like anything and eat very simple meals at home.

I have had pain, sometimes intense, sometimes mild achy pain, since 2/19/09. I went to the Immediate Care Center on Saturday and they thought it could be my appendix since it was on my right side. They did a CT scan and said I had an Ovarian Cyst (4.3cm in diameter) & it hurts like hell. I went to my OB/GYN on Monday and they said it would go away on its own & prescribed pain meds. They told me if I was still hurting in a few days to come back. I went back 5 days later & they again told me it would have to rupture on its own & prescribed me more pain meds. They told me to take 2 (7.5) Lortabs at a time & to keep them in my system until it ruptures. How long can this take? I really don’t want to keep taking this much pain medicine because it makes me nausous. I really don’t know what else to do & I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?!?! Any suggestions would help.

I took the pill for ovarian cysts for a year without skipping the week to have a period and gaind 30 lbs and since then i have not been able to loose that weight no matter how hard i try. that was in 05 and i quit taking them in 06…
since then i have been pregnant and gave birth to my son the beginning of january…lost all my weight from that in the first two months without any work whatsoever….

I was wondering if anyone has had a doc prescribe a prescription that had a side effect of weightloss….if so what was it and did it work?

I’ve taken yaz (my favorite out of all of them), ortho tri cyclen, ovcon 35, Lo Ovral, Ortho Novum 1/35, the progesterone only minipill, and ortho tri-cyclen lo and I bleed through the active pills on all of them.. I’m not talking about spotting here, i’m talking about bleeding like a stuck pig for months at a time. I need a pill that will prevent ovarian cysts, won’t cause weight gain, and won’t make me moody. Any suggestions?
Oh, and it has to be NON androgenic, as I have high testosterone levels due to my PCOS.
at least 3 months on each one.. the only one I DIDNT give three months was the progesterone only minipill.. I was the DEVIL for the month and a half I was on this one. My poor fiance.. he caught the brunt of the evil lol. I absolutely WOULD NOT tolerate it any longer.. but the other ones I have been on for at least 3-6 months each.

My surgeon want to remove the cyst. Are they just going to remove the cyst or they going to remove whole ovary? i hope not! and Ovarian cyst cause abdominal pain and heavy bleeding(period) and infertility?
I have been tried to have baby for about 2 years. Always unsuccesful.
I have cyst on my left ovary. but my right side ovary is fine. my left side ovarian cyst is causing a problem to my right side ovary (infertility)?

for years i have struggled with ovarian cysts and have tried other birth control options. I have tried the shot and gained a ton of weight and lost so much hair(and sex drive), i have done the ortho cyclen too, but stopped because of infections. I am looking to start again for actual birth control reasons. Has anyone had much success/failure rate? Any weight gain, any hair loss.

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend the day that I got off my period (he "pulled out") then I had sex using condoms around the time of ovulation. My boyfriend noticed some liquid on the outside of the condom and to be safe we purchased emergency contraceptives. A little less than a week later I had some light spotting for a couple days. A week after that I began to experience dull pain in my lower left abdomen. I ignored the pain until one morning I woke up with extremely severe pain to the point that I could not move to get out of bed. This was on day 30. My cycles are usually 28-30 days. I’ve taken two pregnancy tests as a precaution. Both of which came out as negative. My mother said she experienced something similar when she had an ovarian cyst at age 29. Do you think this is an ovarian cyst or something else? Help is appreciated

I recently experienced an ovarian cyst rupture, and my doctor put me on Loestrin24 birth control pills to try to smooth everything out. I am a little worried about the side effects.
I know every woman’s body is different and would react differently to the pills. But what was your experience with the birth control? Did you gain weight? How much? What other side effects did you experience.

ok, last month i got an ovarian cyst (that ruptured) and it was VERY painful! It was hurting my back, my tummy, and my thighs. Today there was such a bad pain in my thigh that I was limping. It really sucked it hurt so bad! Do you think this means i might be getting another cyst? possibly a bigger one than before?

thanks

I went on the pill when I was 16. I was on it for 4 years for the duration of a relationship. When we broke up I went off the pill. My skin broke out, I gained a ton of weight, I didn’t have a period for almost a year, I had insulin resistance, elevated testosterone levels, dark skin on my armpits and one ovarian cyst that put me in the hospital. My doctor told me I had PCOS and there wasn’t much I could do about it except go back on the pill. I refused because I was sure that this is what caused my problems in the first place.

Now it has been about 18 months since I’ve been off the pill and I’m finally back to normal. No acne, regular periods, 112 lbs at 5′5. I haven’t had any blood work done, so I don’t know if my blood sugar or hormone levels are normal, but I assume they are since I’m having regular periods and the dark patches under my arms are gone (a sign on insulin resistance).

Do you think that my "PCOS" has gone away or do you think I still might have it? Or do you think this was just a bad reaction to my hormones stabilizing after being on the pill?

They are supposed to be the same compound medication. I have been on Yasmin 28s since I was 15 for ovarian cysts… and then the later, sex of course.

I switched to YAZ because the pill pack has more pills, and we all know what that means– shorter periods– so why not make the switch… I just phoned my doctor and she didnt ask any questions, and made the switch at the pharmacy.

So I have been taking it for almost 5 months now and have gained weight too… but thought it was due to the holidays and usually I do gain a couple pounds but lose them effortlessly in the springtime.

Ive been busting my ass at the gym since Mid-January … I mean SWEATING and doing cardio for 30 minutes, then weights, then ab machines, and the whole lot.

I am a former varsity water polo player and swimmer (entire life).

I am 5′7, and now 150 lbs.I was 130 for 5 years, and while taking Yasmin, never gained weight.

I cannot seem to lose this weight. Could it be from the pill, even though its the same?

I went to the er on tuesday thinking that I had a kidney stone. They did a CAT scan and determined that I ruptured an ovarian cyst. I have been having a type of pulling feeling on the side of the cyst along with nausea and a persistent achey feeling (kind of like when you get a cold or the flu). Is this normal? Thank you.
