Can ovarian cancer cause swelling, pain and pressure on the vagina and rectum to where you can sit in a chair straight.
Pain that runs down left inner thigh, lower back pain, pain in sides, and pelvic pain. Also, I have been gaining weight since January.

I have masses and ovarian cysts. One of these measure 9.7 hounsfield units. What is that? The doctor did a CA-125 test, ct scan, colonoscopy, and ultrasound inner and outer. I go back on Monday, and I can’t sleep.

I had a partial hysterectomy in 2002.
Also, My aunt was diagnosed in 2003 and died in 2004. She gained weight also. She weighed 400lbs and had gained weight when she died. She had a cyst the size of a mellon that busted during exploratory surgery. So, I am scared right now.

I’ve had a cyst in my right ovary, I’ve never had it treated. I discovered I had this cyst when I lost a baby last year; miscarriage. I found out I was preg this year b/c of the sharp pain in that same area; I’m 2 months pregnant and the doctor has seen the cyst; she’s not concerned; however, I’m having sharp pains in that area; should I be concerned? I don’t see her again until 3 weeks from now.
I never had it treated b/c I fell into a deep depression after I lost the baby last year.
Yes ma’am; there was a fear that it was an ectopic pregnancy early on b/c of the pain, and I’ve had an ultrasound since and the gestation sac did drop and all is well, but that pain persists.

i found out last friday i had a cyst, i have had two weeks of pain and pg symptoms, turns out it was from the cyst. pain started sat night and went into early sunday morning. the pain was sharp side pains, and pinching pain in my ovaries. it got really bad and i was doubled over in pain crying and then it would settle down and get bad all over again. well then i got charley horse cramping in my abodmen and i was on the ground in tears and in fetal position i scared my roommate because i was crying and screaming kind of. so i went to the er,after a bunch of tests which showed nothing (they didnt do an ultra sound since i already had one which showed a cyst) she did a pelvic,i still had pain on the right side, when she pushed down it sent shooting charley horse pains up my side, it was determined that it had ruptured. im still getting sharp side pains,with some pinching pain. not nearly as bad, but still hurts, how long until it goes away? they said 2 days. never had this happen before.
when i went in the er there wasnt any bleeding, it said in my report (i work in the hosp and can get this) that i had calcifications in my pelvic area and had phleboliths which are like small blood clots, so i wonder if that is from the cyst. but the pain is still really bad. its all on the right side unless it is very heavy menstrual cramps. and its all that pinching pain and up the side of my right side and sometimes my back has the knife like stabbing pains up it too. er said they really couldnt do anything. the cyst ruptured here at my house, i didnt want to go sit in there for 8 hours espcially when i knew it was gonna rupture. this is day 4 after it happened early sunday morning. it was so intense yesterday at work i was in tears. i will make any apt with a gyne soon, but i cant handle another pelvic exam again right now. i guess maybe its because of the fluid or something in my body. i dont get the problems breathing at all. god i want my life to be normal again! thanks everyone

I have ovarian cyst and i’m on birth control i took it when it felt like my period was coming so i would not menstruate but i had intercourse with my fiance and i’ve been having severe pain since and i started bleeding two days after or what seems to be my period.

For the past week or so I have had this dull aching pain in my lower abdomen and lower back, it hurts really bad when I try to "bear" down in my lower abdomen it kind of feels like a pulled muscle? Also, during intercourse (usually the deepest) I get this stabbing pain but it only last a second like I have hit something in there. I have bad cramps when I get my period but thats normal along with the flow. I have had this pain on and off for almost two years now coming and going. I have been to the doctor and they have never mentioned anything about a cyst. A couple months ago I thought I was pregnant but never could get a positive test result but I, gained weight, had sore breast, sensitive smell and taste, swollen stomach,blue veins, and irregular spotting periods and then a super heavy flow with massive tissue came so I thought I had a miscarriage. But reading some answers on here sounds exactly what I have. If anyone has any info I would really appreciate your input. Thanks!

I have a cyst about 6.8cm on my right ovary. On Tuesday I had an MRI and it was 5.2cm. I went to the OB/GYN today and she gave me a prescription for Lo-Ogestrel 28, a type of birth control pill. She also told me to let it burst on its own. I’ve been in a ton of pain. What will I expect when this cyst ruptures? What kind of side effects (weight gain, etc) are common with this pill?

Well 24, sexually active (pull out method), and I have been having stomach cramps. Not painful at all, it seems like Im about to start my period, or I’m hungry type of cramps. My period is every 30 days, and still need until the 23rd for my period to start so need a little bit over 10 more days ’till it starts. So I was told I have ovarian cyst by my doctor…could it be that. But that’s all I have, and it’s been going on for 3 days that I have stomach cramps and they are loud too lol but not painful…whats the deal? anyone experience this before?

that is 7 centimeters and she has gained alot of weight the doctor told her its not from the cyst because it is small and she keeps gaining weight all over do you think its possible its from the cysts are is she just eating her junk food to much.

I have already had a cyst that burst and that really hurt. That was the worst pain in the world. I have heard that birth control help to reduce the number of cyst and I was wondering if anyone knows if this is true or not.

Need help. Burning/throbbing pain in upper abdomen/back/chest. Very severe. 1st attack was a couple weeks before I found out I was pregnant in 2006. Left until 12/07 and ongoing. I had my gall bladder removed, no relief. Was put on nexium, librax, and carafate. I cannot find a corralation between pain and foods, but chaged my diet anyway. CT scans, MRI, angiogram all normal - did find ovarian cyst and fluid in pelvis, but no pelvic pain. Pain comes 1-4x per week, can last for 15 minutes to days. Intermittant, comes and goes throughout day. No pain reliver can help except morphine in the hospital - kinda feels like back labor. Help!
i have numerous doctors appts coming up for everything and a colonoscopy in october. reflux has been ruled out but i do have mild gastritis and have had h pylori. liver enzymes have been high - also numbness/tingling in finger tips - its a mystery

I had a dull side ache for about a week and then it got really bad last night. This morning when I woke up the pain was almost completely gone but as the day has wore on I’ve gotten a bit of a dull ache back. Does this sound consistent with a burst ovarian cyst? If it does, how long is this dull pain going to last? I don’t have any other symptoms. No fever, nausea, vomiting, etc etc

I have a 3.5 ovarian cyst, and I am not sure if it ruptured or not. I got a sudden sharp pain in my back side that quickly spread to my stomach and back. What could this be?

Hi ladies I’m wondering if I possibly have ovarian cysts/PCOS. My periods are typically pretty regular, they just vary by a couple days each month. Normally it’s either every 24, 26, or 28 days. I would say every now and then I have an off cycle, maybe 3-4 times a year, where I have a longer cycle. My periods are typically extremely heavy with terrible cramping, lasting 5-7 days.

I use a fertility monitor that is always 100% accurate as far as detecting ovulation. Last month it detected my O day, and then I didn’t start my period when I should have. It was 2 wks late, and I have a 12 day luteal phase. I was having horrible throbbing pain in my left ovary, and now I am still having the pains on CD 12. It’s not ovulation pain, it’s much more severe. I’m starting to think I have a cyst or PCOS. I’m not overweight, but if I let myself I can gain weight pretty quickly. I’m possibly 5 pounds heavier than what I should be. I’m not noticing any extra facial hair, and I know not everyone has that symptom. I know everyone’s symptoms are different, but the thing making me wonder is the TERRIBLE pain.

Does it sound like a cyst, or PCOS to you ladies? I have an appointment with my OBGYN on Thursday, and I am just petrified to go. I’m eager to get to the bottom of it, and know it’s in my best interest to go, but I’m just so worried and terrified. Any advice or personal experience? I’d love for you all to share Thanks ladies, and all the baby dust in the world for all of us TTC!
I’m not pregnant. I finally got my period after being 2 wks late, and currently in a new cycle.
Oh I’m keeping the appointment for sure! I’m just petrified that it’s going to be someting that affects my fertility. We been TTC for 9 months, and I’ve had 1 miscarriage. I know we gets cysts each cycle, I’m all too familiar with the way our reproductive system works, lol. I probably know too much for my own good!
Thanks Dr. Phil You always give the best encouragement!

I have been nauseas/vomiting daily for four months. Over the past year I have gained 50 pounds, when I eat healthy and exercise almost daily. I was never thin, but was in shape and now I can’t lose or even maintain my weight, as well as I get lil’ bumps on my arms and feet, sometimes neck (almost like a hive), facial hair, and pelvic pain. Originally I thought it was stress, but after a whiel I felt I needed to go to the dr. I went to my regular Dr. he did a blood test where it came back that i had a 120 testosterone level. My dr. told me I may have PCOS or possibly ovarian cancer. I then went to the gyno and he did an exam and said that he doens’t think it is PCOS because my menstral cycle is ok. He did say he thinks he feels cyst/s. I am going in a few days for a ultra soudn and vaginal probe, but I was wondering in the meantime if anyone has had any similar symptoms, my biggest concern is the excessive weight gain and vomiting.

I was wondering whether one can still ovulate and have ovarian cysts form on your ovaries when using birth control pills? I have heard that certain low dose birth control pills can make you ovulate and can still make cysts form.

I’m on the pill to prevent cysts and endometriosis but have had this pain in my right ovary area for about a week and I’m going to see my doctor on thursday but was just wondering whether it could be a cyst or endometriosis that is causing my pain?

Has anyone else experienced this?
