I have a history of extremely irregular periods. I have been on the pill off and on since I was 13 to regulate it. When I’m not on the pill it has been moderately regular but now I haven’t had my period in a couple of months. I feel pretty much normal (although I’ve gained a little weight which could just be the freshman 5 or 15). I took an over the counter test a few weeks ago and it was negative, but I have ovarian cysts which can effect test results. I’ve had long periods of time where I haven’t had my period before…but never this long while I’ve been sexually active. I’ve been off the pill for about five months. What do you think?

Ok about 9 mths ago I started to get this pain in my groin area and lots of cramps in my lower stomach. I have the Mirena IUD also. Anyways the pain has been getting worse and worse like everyday allday and then last week I started to bleed clots. At my last CT scan they found a cyst on my ovary and it was about 2-4 cm. The pain is only brought on when standing or walking. I have had lots of ultrasounds and ct’s done and they finally found this. COuld the pain be from the cyst? I have felt nausea and all the symptoms above. If it was there before why wasn’t it found? What can be done now? Also my blood work showed elivated white count? PLEASE HELP. I have dr tomorrow and I am freaking out and I just don’t feel good. Also I have been having fevers off and on.
I have had the IUD for 2 yrs and the pains started 9 mths ago. Could that be it? If so why would it wait over a yr to start. TIA

I am 18, got my first period at 11 or 12 and they have always been very heavy and I got them every 2-3 weeks. I got my last period in December, right after my wedding. I am not pregnant, haven’t gained/lost any weight, do not exercise excessively, am not depressed, am not stressed, and do not have any ovarian cysts. Any ideas? Anyone else have this problem?
That’s nice, but I have always had periods. This is new. And I do want to get pregnant eventually so it worries me that I no longer ovulate.
I went to the doc and all she did was check for cysts.

I’m freaking out because last month I found out I had an tiny ovarian cyst on my right ovary after i got my period for the first time again in 3 months (it’s irregular) and I didn’t even know.

The doctor had the nerve to shrug it off! Now, I’m very worried. I wanted to know if I’m going to lose an ovary or not?

I’m scared senseless.

Also, what pain should i expect? What is normal and what isn’t?

when should i see a doctor?

How long would it stay here? Thanks.

Didn’t you guys read my question? I have NONE of those problems. Can somebody please give me an answer and actually read the whole question?
I went to a doctor. No help. I am just wondering what other reasons there could be.

My friend is really worried and I thought I’d try to find her some information about what she may be going through.

She had always had irregular periods and we’ve questioned if she possibly has an ovarian cyst but now we’re thinking she’s possibly pregnant.

She had not had her period since early July and is starting to get very bloated and gaining weight. She had says that she has pains and said it’s:
"usually right below my ribs on the right side, sometimes a little higher. sometimes kinda near my heart. sometimes on the left side of my lower back." and "it’s like a sharp stabbing crampy pain"

She says that she doesn’t feel anything else but she’s very worried.

If you have had one you may know what I am on about. If you have ever had a cyst on one side, did pain radiate to the other side of your hip, groin, leg and lower back and did you get increased bowel trouble? I have had a cervical screening and it’s clear….. The hospital wants to operate on me, but I said I want to wait for another scan first to see if its all cleared up… what was your symptoms or do you know anyone who has had this? And could it be anything else?

the last 4 days i have felt realy sickly constantly, and got really bad stomach pains,
i eat alot of food even though i am only 6st 9. And its not toilet pains or anythink like that, ann the last 2 days i have had really bad migraines,
My mum took me the doctors an they said they would organise a scan for me because they feared i may have an ovarian cyst, Is that bad ?x
when i also went the doctors they took a wee sample and found protein and keytones in my urine and also said i could be diabetic , because i am not gaining weight, an i am eating more food than i should, ? i dont no what to do anymore, People are alsoo skitting me sayin i dont eat and i am anerexic when i no i am not, and i eat alot more food than most of them eat, But if you actually look at me stomach it is nicely toned an i have a 2 pac, my mum says there jealous xx

According to my doctor I’m not overweight but I’m not happy with my body. I’m and 20 year old female and I’m 5′4" and weigh about 150 lbs I’m a size 10 in juniors. I’d like to be a size 5 or smaller so I’d probably need to lose 30-40 lbs. In high school I was in marching band so I was always active and I was about a size 6-7 but when I was 17 I had a 15.5lb ovarian cyst and had major surgery. I wasn’t allowed to be physically active for 7 months and I gained a ton of weight mostly in my thighs but then I saw it start to slowly appear on my arms, and my stomach. I’ve tried so many workout videos but I don’t have the endurance for them. I’m changing my diet but I would really love some advice as to which exercises work. Keep in mind I’m starting over as a beginner and my ad muscles are so weak too many crunches or sit ups hurt, not burn. HURT.

Im sorry but I have been worried so much about this.

Hi, i am 23, and recently my doctor diagnosed that i have an ovarian cyst, and my hormone levels are abnormal. Apparently, i gained 12 lbs in 2 months, and i have been taking birth control (which is suppose to balance my hormones) for about a month, and during this duration, i have gained 4 lbs. So i have gained total of 16 lbs. i know weight gain is a side effect, but my doctor told me to keep taking the birthcontrol for 2 more months. But, will i keep gaining the weight, or will it go away on its on.Currently, i am 136, with a huge belly. Also my breast is very tender and painful, and they have gotten bigger since i have been taking the birth control. HELP!!!

i keep gettin ovarian cysts. motrin, advil or any of that does not help the pain. after my periods they still dont go away and i tried birth control too. i dont want to have laprascopic surgery again. what can i do to ease the pain or is there anything i can do to help myself?

I’m on birthcontrol and sometimes forget to take them at the same time everyday or i have missed one or two every so often. Me and my boyfriend have sex on the regular w/o condoms. We both went to get checked together so we know were both clean, anyways the last time we had sex i had this very sharp pain but only in the right side of my uterus. I was kinda freaking out because I have never felt that before. So now im starting to worry if i could possibly be pregnant or even have an ectopic pregnancy. Not only just that but im worry if i may have an ovarian cyst or something of that sort. within the last month i have been quite tired a lot. I’ve gained weight, eat more, my boobs hurt constantly, lower back pain, frequent urination, and some dizzy spells. I’m not quite sure what this is and i know your probably thinking go take a pregnancy test, but i really wana know if anyone els has experienced something like this or can relate. thanks for taking the time to read this.

A few months ago my period started being a little irregular. I’d get it anywhere from 2-5 days early.. when usually im on time or 1-2 days late. Last month, a week after my period was done, i got a bloody/slimy discharge for a day but thought nothing of it. The next day i got this pain my hip/lower right side of my stomach. It’s been two weeks and the pain is still there. Its anything from pinching, to tightness, a pain that’s always there. It’s not unbearable.. but it hasnt gone away. This month, i got my period 4 days late which usually never happens. Im on my period now and the pain got a little worse. My right side of my stomach feels stretched and its very uncomfortable. When i bend over i get a shooting pain in my back. What can it be?
