I havent had that much of pain but all of a sudden last thursday night i had this weird feeling on my left side near the hip bone(or watever bone that is) before the weird feeling started i was doing some push-ups, sit ups and stretches. It has been feeling weird, on and off. and my period started on wednesday. (not my first period) I am worried could I have an ovarian cyst? I really dont wanna go to the doctor, or hospital or anything unless if it gets worse…or i have bad pain. Oh and I looked up the symptoms and I dont have any of them. and saturday i had like menstrual cramps, but then after a little bit they went away. Ok thanks and…

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

For the past five years, I’ve been experiencing pelvic pain similar to menstrual cramps (but worse) beginning the day after I ovulate and extending for the next two weeks until I begin my period (at which time regular menstrual cramps are actually a relief). The pain will come (very quickly) and go and may happen several times a day for two weeks or just a couple days within that time. It never happens before I ovulate or after I start my period.
It’s been getting worse and worse and I have to take Ibuprofen now to cope with it. I’m trying to figure out what it is. I thought for a long time that it was endometriosis, but I’m beginning to think that it could be ovarian cysts. A couple of months ago, the pain was almost nonexistent! I had just recently stopped eating all animal products and thought that had done the trick, but next month it was back and I was extremely discouraged.
I don’t want to go to the doctor for treatment because they will either want to do surgery, tell me to get on birth control, or tell me to keep taking painkillers. The pain disrupts my life (like waking me up in the middle of the night when I have to be up early the next day), but so does taking medicine because then I’m groggy and out of it and can’t function correctly.
Lately I’ve begun to think that perhaps the condition is being exacerbated by chocolate (and all caffeine products, but I don’t drink coffee). I haven’t eaten chocolate for the past few days and the cramps have been mild enough that I haven’t had to take any Ibuprofen. My mom has fibrocystic breast disease and can’t eat chocolate because the caffeine and tannins in it will inflame the cysts and cause her to be in extreme pain for days. I was wondering if it could do the same for ovarian cysts?
The information out there seems to just talk about sever pain during menstruation or mittelschmerz ovulation pain but nothing for pain that happens in the two intervening weeks. Has anyone else experience what I’ve described? Does anyone know anything about the link between ovarian cysts and chocolate or caffeine? Do my symptoms sound like endometriosis or ovarian cysts or something else? I would really like to find a natural treatment for this and I’m almost positive that it has something to do with diet. I love love love chocolate but I would give it up if it meant getting my life back two weeks out of five.
