HELP!

my husband & i had sex without a condom several times in the past three weeks.
(were trying to get pregnant)

Lately,i have been having this dull pain in my lower left abdomen.it does not spread,and it increases if i laugh or sneeze.i have also had very loose,almost water like discharge. (sorry if this is TMI) i have also been having very bad gas,irritability,a fullness feeling in my lower abdomen,headaches,and recent tummy aches.i have not thrown up,been nauseated, or had any sign of morning sickness whatsoever,although i read that diarrhea is/can be morning sickness.

awhile ago,i did have these same pains on the right side,and after that,the left again though.this was a few months ago,though.i am trying to figure out if these are signs of an ovarian cyst, (my mother got them a lot when she was my age,every month or so) or if i am really pregnant,even though if i was,it would only be a week or two into the pregnancy.

any advice or help or ANSWERS would be great!

I have an ovarian cyst which causes me severe pain every few weeks. I’m having a second ultra sound next month to see if it’s getting bigger, smaller or is the same - and from there I will decide with my gynecologist as to whether or not I should have an operation to remove it.

My cyst is 6.5 by 4.6 by 4.3cm. If it ruptured one day, what should I do? My friend had one which was a lot smaller and when hers ruptured she couldn’t walk, eat or even move her hand! If I was to ever experience severe pain from this is it acceptable to call an ambulance and go to A&E?

Thanks in advance =) x

I have had ovarian cysts since I was 13. It caused me to gain weight and also I started my periods a little earlier than all the other girls.

I had 2 previous partners, one for 3 years and another for a year and didn’t get pregnant. I met my fiance in 2007 and we started TTC #1 and I fell pregnant in 4 months. After our daughter was about 1 month we decided to TTC#2 as I thought my cysts may make it harder for us to concieve.

Anyway, we have been TTC #2 for nearly 2.5 years and had no luck. We went to see GP at 18 months TTC but even though i mentioned my Ovarian cysts and my mothers fertility issues she just did a blood tests and said my hormones were ‘normal’. She told us to TTC longer and wait it out as we already have a daughter. She didn’t think my fiance’s sperm was an issue and decided not to test.

My periods are irregualr lengths and sometimes I have a short LP or a long LP of 18-20 days and sometimes it has been 14 days. I have been taking folic acid and pre-natal vitamin. I have bought some Vitamin B6 and started to drink Green Tea today to see if that helps. My fiance is also taking Zinc & Vitamin C for sperm quality. Is there anything I can do? I want my GP to check my ovaries to see if i may have poly ovaries without the hormone imbalance? But what is making my periods so irregular?

We are now moving GP’s and hope to get a second opinion. What do you ladies think? Thanks =)

I am 12 weeks & 4 days pregnant. I am having pains in the lower left part of my abdomen, back pains & frequent urination. Could this be a cyst or just pains from being pregnant?

I’m 17 & I’m starting to get more into learning about birth control & how it works. Well I know the basics, but I don’t know the little things. For example: can it really risk your chance of having breast cancer, getting ovarian cysts, gain more weight and increase breast size.

My main use for this would be to help clear my skin a little (it’s not terrible, but I’d like it to be a little better) & to control my irregular periods & lately my past 2 periods, i’ve had the worst cramps. I never use to get cramps. Aside from that, I do want to be safe if I when & if I have sex.

Also could you recommended some good birth control brands.

I’m 5′1, 95 pounds, slim & an active athlete (gymnastics, soccer, track) if that information makes any difference

I’m wondering if your body can be cured of your PCOS… (if you dont know what it is look up Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)

From 11-18yrs old, i had regular cycles every month, then at 18 my period only came every 3-6 months, they would be short, crampy, and then symptoms such as weight gain,unwanted hair,mood swings, cysts on the ovaries started… it was confirmed at the age of 20.. im 23 now

The irregular periods continued until last October, it came for 2 months in a row! and then i fell pregnant in December

So wondering if it can just disappear??, especially getting pregnant so quick after 2 regular cycles! I unfortunately lost my baby, at 20wks, in May, but since then my periods have STAYED regular!!!

Although i am very depressed about losing my baby, i somehow feel like maybe the PCOS disappeared and i am somewhat happy if this is true!

Wondering if anyone might have had this happen, and if they have had regular periods randomly after many years of an irregular one, do you know why??

Why after losing my baby has it gone back to a permenant Regular (3 periods in a row) & EXACTLY on time??!!

This has NOT happened since i was 18! and thats 5 years of irregular periods!! and i have no idea what ive done different…

Thanks to all answers.

I have been told cysts can disappear but not sure how common or true this is?

I would love to start ttc, my boyfriend isnt ready yet, but if this means ill be more fertile than when i had irregular periods, this is hope for me and my boyfriend to get pregnant quick next time around

Thanks to all answers.

I recieved my period when i was 11. Up untill the age 13 & 14 that’s when i started to notice it was turing abnormal. I had a period for weeks and weeks (3wks or more) blood clots bad…. then. & they would also skip. When I turned 19 i started birthcontrol. It make them normal but then i quit taking them when i was just about turing 20 because i thought they were making me gain weight but it was my own genes doing that bit. I recently had surgery in Feb. 2009 because i was dignosed with an ovarian cyst and large mass tumor on my left ovary. Scarry but it was non-cancerous. I had open major surgery… the tumor was the size of 3L soda bottle. It was removed and I was recovering well… i was then again put back on birthcontrol for the next three months my periods were normal. perfect i loved it. After those three months…. i stopped the birthcontrol again because it cost 35 dollors a month for my daily pills and … my period has stopped as well.

what could this be? i’m not pregnate, i take pg test every two weeks, i dont drink, i smoke the ganja but that’s not harmful, i workout, i eat ok…, there is some stress in my life… i just dont’ know.
along with the removal of the tumor
they had to take my left ovary as well… so i only have one… my right.. could this make this big effect????
i haven’t had a period for 3-4months.

i have been try in to conceive for about 6 months i had one miscarriage and was devastated, i have had a very small ovarian cyst. i feel pregnant now but i have just had a period. it was not like my others it was two days shorter 1 week late and brownish pink, i am going to test, i have already made an appointment, i just want to know what you ladies think

keep in mind my mother had her full blown period while pregnant with me.

Signs:
-Head aches
-Back aches
-Nausea
-Constipation
-Weight loss
-& now a bunch of weight gain
-a line down my tummy
-trouble breathing
-tummy bulging
well its a possibility i could be 2 or 3 months because april i had a irregular period only two days nd was so little i just needed a panty liner. may was my weird 4 day period with no bright red blood and so far i have not had my period this month. And i have had my period long enough to know what PMS is and when they found my cyst i had no signs or anything indicating a cyst.

Any input on the following would be appreciated:

- Painfully sore breasts for about 2 weeks
- Erratic body temp (fluctuates btwn cold/hot)
- Disoriented, listless, slightly depressed
- 4 pound weight gain in a week (very unusual)
- Heightened sense of smell
- Persistent craving for tomatoes (and not much else)
- Ear ache & sinus pain
- Insomnia though tired

My cycle is frequently unpredictable due to an ovarian cyst and a home test has not been done yet.

Web searches produce uniformly generic results so feedback from medical pros or experienced moms would be great.

Thanks in advance.

I’m 28 years old I do not take birth control. I’ve had in the past 2 d&c, uterus ablation, and my tubes tied. I just had an ultrasound to see if the cyst on my left ovary has gotten any bigger. My question is I have pain on my left side in the pelvic area. Also pain in my lower back. And it also hurts during sex. It even hurt during the ultrasound. So I’m just wondering what are the symptoms to an ovarian cyst. Now I’m just waiting on the results to the ultrasound. I do not have a period anymore the only time I had blood was when I wiped myself a week ago. But I’ve been in a lot of pain for 2 weeks

I went to hosp in May for pain, found out I had Ovarian Cysts. Since then pain stopped. About 2 weeks ago pain came mildly again. Today I went to hosp & doc told me looks like i had a "ruptured" ovarian cyst. What i’m confused about is the fact that my period has been regular "lately" (b/c it was off years ago) but my last one was July 9. i’m late 2 months, been crampy, nausea, vomit, weight gain, fatigue, & i know its too early but my belly has bulged out more in my clothes. I crave breads, ice cream, & create weird condiment mixes like ketchup, mayo, mustard & ranch dressing to eat with my chicken strips. When i took a hpt my homegirl & i both thought we saw a FAINT (very very very) light pink line, but doc did a urine & he said Negative. Vaginal ultrasound showed cysts but they didnt mention if they looked for pregnancy. I read another question where a lady said the cyst were blocking the baby, is that possible? Why do i feel & look preg & my period 2 months late if i’m not??? PLEASE SERIOUS RELIABLE ANSWERS…. I’m lost.. I’m 27 & i would like to have a baby someday.

Ok- maybe someone has some experience they can share. . I am 26 and had my 1st depo at age 15. I was on depo until i was 19, stopped, got on BC pills for 6 months, stopped to conceive my 1st child and after I had my daughter at age 20 - started taking depo again until January 2007. Am now on the BC pills again. Is it possible that the depo "paused" puberty for me? my breasts have started to grow?? and im not gaining weight any where else & am not pregnant…. have also had the ovarian cysts & some really bad back pain- and my periods came back right away ?? anybody been where i am now?

i recently got off the depo shot.Havent had period for over a year.my last shot was due late Aug.but since I’m abstinent I dont ned&caused a lot of problems like weight gain&migraine and major depression&lack of energy.My Dr.recommends I go on birth control for ovarian cysts but I wanna try a home or herbal remedy to get my periods to start so my hormones are back in balance b/c I dont feel like myself.Am always tired.If anyone has any info on anything they used or heard of that isnt prescribed to help start periods thats natural or even over counter please let me know.I dont feel like a woman without my periods.I dont like them,but now that i am older,31&had 3 kids my periods have lessened.When i actually have periods.I dont need something that will make me bleed ongoing.And the only thing I know that can start& make u continue u is b.c.pills&hormone pills which i dont want the side effects.please help someone!

Any info as to how or what I can do 2 help myself with this pain & annoying feeling…Back pain included…Ovarian cysts r a real b—-…..Get back 2 me with home remedies..,,,voodoo,,,,anything!!!!!!!
