I have PCOS, and for the first time EVER I got a positive opk the day before yesterday. Yesterday I felt crampy nothing big. Tonight I have pain in my right ovary like it’s being poked by needles. I just recently came off the pill because they were not helping my ovarian cysts. My questilon is…could this be a legit ovulation that is causing pain, or is it the stupid ovarian cyst. I don’t want to get my hopes up if it’s a sham. Please help me! Thank you

My last period was on June 24. I have cysts on my ovaries, so I do usually experience some pain with ovulation, but last night’s pain was excruciating. My boyfriend and I had sex, and during the act I experienced pressure around both ovaries. Later on, at around 3 or 4 in the morning the pain in my right ovary woke me up; it felt like constant pressure and was extremely uncomfortable.

Is pain during sex and hours afterward (during ovulation?) normal for women with ovarian cysts?

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?

We’ve been ttc for 6 months… I haven’t had a period for 3.
He thinks its his little men with "problems" as well as my messed up hormones (which the doctor won’t treat… he put me on the pill a couple of months ago before I start fertility treatment to regulate my hormones a bit, but he says I can’t start it til my next period, which I haven’t had).
My amazing fiance doesn’t moan about the struggle we’re having doing this, he says he loves me no matter what, but when we go out and see teenage mothers, or indeed any family with young children, I can see the hurt in his eyes, and the guilt is eating me up inside, as well as my inner hatred for myself.
I’m constantly getting cramps, but my GP just put it down to IBS and gave me pills. These cramps arise every two weeksish, but sometimes I get the odd twinge. My breasts sometimes get sore but not on a regular basis. I’m going to push the fact that I want a scan to see whether I’ve got ovarian cysts or cancer (worst case scenario), next time I go to GP, but he’ll probably just laugh it off like he usually does.
Btw, I really admire all the lovely people that have been trying for ages and never give up, you guys are the inspiration for me continuing this and not just throwing the towel in and giving up
Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with my man problems over this (I’m sure it’s not his little men, his father had 5 kids no problem lol), and natural ways of ttc, and increasing chances of ovulation? I have a balanced diet… although i sometimes have too much dairy products. I’m not overweight though, and I don’t have any other major health problems, other than my lack of periods… which runs in the family… but my mother and grandmother never had periods so irregular as mine.
I’m more relaxed about it now than I was, and I’ve stopped worrying so much, but I don’t want us to suffer any more trauma over this.
Help?

How is this possible when I am not suppost to be ovulating or does it mean I dont have the harmless normal cyst that comes from ovulation. I am so freaked out. I am on low dose birth control which I did read is less likely to help cysts from happening.. Im so confused.

I have been on Ocella birth control (pill) since around aug.2008. In November i was diagnosed with a pre-cancerous skin lesion on my vulva but got that taken care of. At the time, i was also diagnosed with a little cyst on my ovary..nothing major, it went away. But here lately, it feels like im starting to get another one on the same exact spot. I have read that birth control is supposed to prevents these since Estrogen and progestin birth control pills prevent ovulation. Functional ovarian cysts do not form without ovulation? I still have regular periods, 6-7days long, sometimes their a little heavier than usual, my last one i actually had alot of clots, is this not a good sign?? And does this mean im still ovulating or fertile because of the cyst i have had??

I have been suffering with ovarian cysts for about a year now with irregular periods since my period started. lately, I do not seem to have any periods until the cysts burst which is excruciating. I have been prescribes percocet and birth control pills (combined pill called zovia). I have been on the pill for 3 months now, starting after my last ovarian cyst rupture so it was supposed to be done with. I have been taking the pill regularly at the same time and this week have started having symptoms of a cyst. Now my right ovary is radiating in pain like a cyst is about to rupture.. same feeling I have gotten with every cyst before.
Has anyone else been on birth control who has this same problem? Did the pills work for you or did you continue to get cysts?

Anyone have any insight as to why I am still getting cysts if I am supposedly not ovulating? Thanks (ive tried google with no good hits and calling my dr. tomorrow to get an appointment sometime this week)
I’ve already had bloodwork which he said was alright except my biliruben levels were pretty low. He mentioned PCOS but said he wanted to see if the birth control helped first. He seemed pretty confident that the dose of birth control her gave me would be sufficient in stopping my ovulation. Has anyone had this happen to them before? Thanks.

I’ve been having ovarian cyst trouble for the last couple of months. I was in the hospital yesterday for extreme pain. They said the cyst is causing my pain (it is 4 cm), and fluid which is realeased from the cyst during ovulation is moving about my abdomen and causing pain.

Are there any holistic or natural remedies to pain/cysts?
