I do not have health insurance yet, I’m waiting to hear back from a few places before I choose,so I can’t go to the doctor yet. Ovarian cyst and cancer runs in my family and was wondering if anybody knows what this could be. My husband and I are ttc month 5 now and I normally have a 30 day cycle. A few months ago it switched to a 33 day cycle. Well this month I was 4 days late and thought I was pregnant well then af came and that was that. Well, now a week after I got off my period I can tell I’m ovulating by the cm, I can always tell when I’m ovulating by the cm. I have also been very bloated, over the weekend, I haven’t eaten more than normal, my work pants have gotten snug and I have been gaining weight. I have had migraines or at least a headache every day, I have a cold now and was feeling like I was going to throw up. I go from hot to cold all the time, and every time I brush my teeth or use any form of mouth wash it makes me gag to the point where I’m dry heaving. I have been using the bathroom a little bit more and sometimes it’s just very little that comes out. Does anybody know what this could be at all. I’m worried about myself and until I finalize my insurance I can’t go to the doctor and would like some piece of mind.
I also am not on birth control and have not been on bc in over 3 years. I also have taken preg. test and they came out neg.

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?

im 25 n have been havin irregular menses since puberty.but now it has gotten worse.i had my menses thrice in march n in april for 2 weeks.and i have been gaining weight.
my LH,FSH n prolactin levels r norm.there are no cysts and no tumors in hypothalamus or pituitary.
i think i may b havin PCOS but cant confirm till i get back 2 my country to run a full checkup.
im a medical student n i thght perhaps estrogen-progesteron contraceptives might help.but im afraid it will make me gain more weight n worsen my symptoms.pls help….thnx

I missed my period tis month and have a large cyst on my right ovary. They put my on Birth Control and said that I would be spotting. The first days I was spotting a little but now it seems like I have my actual period. Lighter but the cramps are there for sure. I just started the BC and I was told that I was only supposed to get my period the last week of the packet of BC. Is it normal to get your period right when I started bc? or could this just be heavier spotting? Also do ovarian cysts cause bloating? And gaining weight? Thank you ssoo much.

It been about two months, and I have had periods with cramping since the suspected conception, but I’ve noticed it’s kinda shorter. It will be heavy the first two days, then taper off the rest day or so. I’m worried because I have a blood filled ovarian cyst, and I don’t know if that bleeding can be mistaken for a period. Again, I do have normal period symptoms, such as cramps, bloating, and tender breasts- only around the time my period is starting. I feel like I’m gaining weight and becoming more fatigued, and the shorter period worries me.

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.

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 have an ovarian cyst on my right ovary…and I have been gaining weight! Some people say it’s causing me to retain water…some people say it’s because I can’t digest sugars like I could without the cyst…Anyone have any ideas?

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 recently stopped using birth control for the first time in 7 years and have an ovarian cyst. Both of these affect my hormones and due to this I am gaining weight. What can I do to counteract the effect that the hormones have on my weight?

i started birth control, and its really bothering me alot, ever since ive taken it, ive changed alot…im not myself, its been about 5 months or so since ive been on it, its making everything about me different.

heres why:

back in november/dec. 2007, i weighed about 135.
for my body structure and height, thats not so bad, but i was a bit chunky.
so when i started birth control, i was still about that, but i kept getting hungry more then usual, so i was gaining weight, so i was like grrr, so i went on a diet and lost about 15 pounds or so. so, i ran out of pills, and i wasnt on them for about 2 weeks, and i noticed my thighs and stomach were alot smaller, and pants fit me in ways i never thought could, and i was so happy! i was slimmer too….i didnt have the erdge to eat like a pig.
then i got some more pills, and ive been on them for a week again,
and im gaining weight again! and always hungry!!! this is ridiculous.

not only that, is my mood swings are worst then before, when i was off them i was relaxed alot more then now, and it seems like the littlest stupid things make me cry, i cry at least once a week, and i never did before.

the doctor told me this was supposed to help with pms and mood swings but its only making it so much worst,

the only reason i started birth control was because i have ovarian cysts and she said it would help with that, and it has alot, but the other side affects are affecting my life.

im also ALWAYS tired, no motivation, and i was never like that before, i have constant migraines like every other day,
and im always naseous.

I cant stop the birth control bc its working wonders for my cysts, but its making me wicked depressed.
