I am a 16 year old girl who has had some ovary problems in the past. I get cysts this time of year. The last cyst was said to be massive. About a week ago I started to have abdominal pains, so I went to urgent care. They said I had vaginiosis and a yeast infection. On valentine’s day I got my period but it was extremely light and only lasted two days which is unusual for me. I am going through some med changes for my schiziod affective disorder but that happened last month. Last month I started to have back pains… but I had a back injury when I was a cheerleader. Also from my meds and hospitalisations I have gained about 70 pounds.I read that weight gain as a teen can cause Ovarian Cancer before meneopuase. I have other symptoms too such as nausea, loss of appitite, abdominal pains (as I wrote earlier as well as back pains), dizziness, bloating and frequently going to the bathroom. I’ve also been crying from the pains and I don’t get cramps with my peroid. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with me?

about 3 weeks ago i had really bad pain in my lower back. I went to the doctor and they said i probably pulled the muscle. Now yesterday I went back for a pain right by my appendix and ovary and it turned out i ahd an ovarian cyst that had ruptured. Could this be the cause of my lower back pain even though my back pain started 3 weeks earlier? And would it also affect the back of my thighs too?
thx
and please give me serious answers
and im 13 and have been getting my period for like a year and 9 months

My surgeon want to remove the cyst. Are they just going to remove the cyst or they going to remove whole ovary? i hope not! and Ovarian cyst cause abdominal pain and heavy bleeding(period) and infertility?
I have been tried to have baby for about 2 years. Always unsuccesful.
I have cyst on my left ovary. but my right side ovary is fine. my left side ovarian cyst is causing a problem to my right side ovary (infertility)?

Did an xray that lead me to a CT Scan. I was told that I had a small ovarian cyst and they were going to refer me to an ob/gyn.
I have HORRIBLE constant pain in my right hip/waist/back area (originally led me to dr) I also have sudden sharp pains near both ovaries. Nausua and occasional pain in pelvic area. Is this all from a "small" ovarian cyst? Oh and my last menstral cycle was VERY irregular and I have not had one since July 27th so this one is VERY late. PS I KNOW I AM NOT PREGNANT!
Just got off the phone with the nurse. The cyst is on my left ovary and its 3.0cm. I have been having the pain in my left ovary for over 6 months now.

3 weeks ago I went for a ultrasound that found a 4cm cyst on my right ovary. At the time I wasnt in much pain at all.. but for the past week I have been in excruciating pain in my lower back and pelvic area. It felt like back cramps that I usually get the day I start my period but way worse and for 10 days instead of one! Today I got my period and it is VERY heavy with a lot of blood clots. This is very unusual for me I never have clotting or a heavy flow. Also, the crazy thing is that this morning I was still in horrible pain but when my period came this afternoon, all of my pain pretty much subsided besides for some slight pain where my ovary is with the cyst. Is this normal with a cyst to have horrible pain before your period starts and then it subsides? Should I expect this pain to return when my period ends?
Now that the pain has subsided quite a lot does that mean my cyst is dissolving?
We think I have had the cyst for a few months now and it is a complicated cyst but I have never had this horrible pain that I had for the past two weeks and now its subsiding so that is why I am wondering if it is dissolving or not..
The pain I have been having was worse in my lower back than my pelvic area if that makes any difference..?
Is it safe for me to wait until next wednesday to see my gyno ?

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 went to my OB/GYN because of horrible stabbing pains near my left ovary. He did an ultrasound and found a 3cm cyst on my right ovary. Now he wants me to go to a stomach specialist to see if anything else like IBS is causing the pain on my left side before doing surgery. Could IBS be causing this pain or the cyst even if it’s on the right ovary. I thought IBS felt like horrible gas pains. Not stabbing pains in one spot.
Also, can anyone tell me about the surgery to remove ovarian cysts? Was it painful? How long were you in the hospital?
I’ve also been bleeding since the pain started. I’m not sure if that’s from my IUD that I got in or the cyst.

I have an ovarian cyst on my right ovary every month according to the doctors it ruptures and regrows. Which cause great pain it makes me have flu symptoms like vomiting and diarrhea. But the cyst always ruptures the day of my period, and I usually can feel it growing a few weeks before my period which causes a lot of discomfort too. I have been to three gynecologists,emergency room (thought my appendix ruptured), and my family doctor they all say it can not be removed and its fine. The only suggestions they have for the pain is pain killers which i will NOT take on a monthly basis, and birth control which I cannot have because of a history of blood clots in my family. I have only had three external ultrasounds done on it. Basically for the last 7 years I have been having this problem and doctors only give me minimal information about it or what to do about it for that matter. I’m pretty scared I’m not going to be able to have children because of this cyst. And I know its more than just a cyst and I know there’s something else that can be done about it as opposed to me just being obnoxiously sick every month from this. Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong and what to do about it.

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 had an cyst on my right ovary. I am now on BC. this passing monday I had started to feel really sharp pains in my back and sides. So I asked for an ultrasound. When I went the doctor she said that it was gone. She said it may have went away on it own. But I still feel pains. they are not severe to the point where i can’t take it but more like aches of pain. In my sides and in my back. I also get this odd feeling pain in my stomach when I lay on my stomach. What do you think it could be? My last cyst ruptured and the pain was unbearable.

I have some tenderness on my right side, about above my hip and kind of behind my hip bone. I noticed it recently. I have been diagnosed with a cyst on my left ovary. I have read that you can feel discomfort during ovulation. Is that what this is?

I was in the hospital about 3 months ago for Toxic Shock Syndrome and they did a ultrasound and told me that I also had an ovarian cyst on my left ovary… well I just started my period today and I have this pain going down my left leg that hurts like no other!!!!!! Its seriously about ready to make me throw up it hurts so bad… do you think the cyst is causing it? My medical insurance doesn’t start until January so going to the doctor is sort of on the backburner if I can absolutely avoid it. Help! Thanks!
Sorry the question was supposed to say *Left* leg.

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?
