I will be having a 7cm cyst removed in a few weeks. I have looked at info online and saw that one of the many symptoms of having cysts is weight gain and having problems losing weight. My question is will I lose weight after the removal or will it be easier to lose? Any help would be great!

Here are the symptoms:
- abdominal pain (mainly discomfort)
- A diagnosis (that is now gone) of constipation
- Extreme fatigue
- Bloated
- Loss of appetite
- Unusual weight gain
- Legs tend to be very weak
- Dull and achy pain
- On sides below ribs
- Stomach area
- pelvic
- both sides and middle
- high theigh
- Lower back
-Tender to touch
- stomach + pelvic area
- Low grade fever - off and on

My blood tests came back fine. X-Ray’s showed that the constipation was gone but I still have the pain. Fever tends to go away for two days at the most, then come back. It hurts to go to the bathroom (straining makes it worse) (the pain is a feeling of fullness and pressure/dull and achy). I’m 13 and female. Ovarian Cancer/Cysts run in the family, Breast Cancer runs in the family (grandmother died from it), and I was born without 1 artery in the umbilical cord. They said I would have rectal problems (maybe) from that at this age. What do you suspect this is?
I already went to the doctors so don’t tell me to go there. The pain level (1 - 10) and 10 being the worst, it usually sits at about a 4-5. Sometimes a 6. Plus, it is not a thyroid problem, nor is it Celiac Disease. I think it might be my kidneys, but I’m not sure. That’s why I wanted your opinions.

I have no insurance, so i cant afford to go to the doctor right now to find out. But here are a few symptoms i am having:
Weight gain
No period for 3 months
Blurred vision at times

I have been to the free clinic in my home town, but they cant determine that sort of advance care. But they did a pregnacy test and the results were negative. so i know that that’s not what it is.

Im really not sure what to do. What are the symptoms of the cyst? any information is greatly appreciated.

I was reading a little about PCOS today and it kind of worried me, since I had some of the symptoms. I also had a sharp pain in my right arm and when I googled it a link about PCOS came up.

My symptom:

-Increased body hair.. I have dark hair so I’ve always had some, but lately it’s been a LOT.

-Ovarian cysts

-Lately my skin has been breaking out like crazy when normally my skin is pretty clear

-Weight gain

-I don’t use birth control and I’ve never been pregnant.. I know it’s silly to think I’m infertile without a proper test but it strikes me as quite odd that I’ve NEVER become pregnant while having unprotected sex

-My body has always been very hourglass. I always had a tiny waist. But the past 2 years I’ve developed more of a belly.

Should I consider seeing a doctor or gyno and discussing it with them?
Thanks in advanced

Got my appointment with some gyno specialist tomoro about some concerns with my ovaries (frightening talk!) Keep getting Pretty Large cysts on both my left and right ovary, abdominal pain, irregular and missed periods and weight gain (that sucks), Doctors trying to find the cause/treatment, got me on edge a little bit. Im almost engaged, wanting to start a family of my own (hes already got a couple troublemakers lol) kids are my life, ive worked with them and always wanted them. My mother couldnt have me and mirically concieved me through IVF (Invitro Fertilisation) (Test Tube Baby) only a couple years after the first ever test tube baby was born in 1986, im a miracle child! Ive been having nightmares ever since i had these things diagnosed by a doctor as ovarian cysts, although a common thing, mine are supposedly a large size and reccuring and bring a lot of pain with em every month, the words of a doctor haunting me in my sleep (we may birth control if youre lucky, if not simple surgery and worst case take out one of your ovaries), i havent slept in a couple days, just nervous. Me and my man have a long distance relationship; only while i finish my studies (i move back up in a few months) and im seeing him in 10 days but im just a little uptight, and I know the people on Yahoo answers can always give me a reassuring word of advice or a story lol fingers crossed!

I am a week late for my period. I don’t have perfectly regular cycles, but they usually tend to be around 33-35 days. Today is day 42. My last cycle started December 8. I’m almost 100% positive that I’m not pregnant. I’ve taken 16 hpts (I know, it’s a lot, I’m paranoid) including one this morning. I’ve gotten a doctor’s urine test and a blood test when I was four days late. Everything has come back negative. And if I was pregnant, I would have conceived on December 18 which should have been long before I ovulated. But I’m having all sorts of weird symptoms. Lightheadedness, slight breast tenderness (which I do get before my period, but it hasn’t come yet), light cramping, weight gain, nausea, etc. I also have a burning pain sometimes right inside my left hip bone. The doctor said that I might have an ovarian cyst or PCOS. That seems so strange though, because I don’t usually have major health issues. Why is my period so late? What is wrong with me?
I’m 22 years old and I started my period when I was 10. I haven’t been this late since I was in high school. That’s why I’m worried.

I was diagnosed with endometriois in March 2006 when I had a laproscopy for an ovarian cyst. My doctor suggested that I take lupron shots and I took 6 shots in 2006. My pain has reduced but I guess I am suffering from many side effects such as fatigue, loss of interest in studies, body and joint pains, weight gain etc. I have been doing Yoga for the past two months to reduce my weight and maintain my calm. I feel good immediately after doing Yoga but I don’t see any effect on my other side effects such as body pain and weight. I am desperate to lose weight because I have reflux problem and weight gain aggravates it. I can’t eat and drink as others and always feel sick because of acidity and the side effects of shots. Please help me. I am doing Ph.D in USA and feel terrible because I am not able to concentrate.

I started my period young and had one ever so often thru 6th grade thru highschool. WHen I was a freshman in HS I was put on BC pills because of the horrible heavy periods and ahwful cramping and ovarian cysts. The BC pills heled with the periods but made me ahwfuly moody they tried the patch and a few pills to try and fix the issue, my mom hated it and i hated being so moody so when I was a senior in HS I decided to see what would come of not being on the pill anymore. I felt better not so moody but my periods were whacky again and just wouldnt come…. SO…i went back on BC pills orthro tri cyc lo and was on it for a few years…and my 1rst year in college i had to have a leap of my cervix because of abrnormal cells, and was very upsetting. I met my long time b.f that year and a year later I became pregnant some how while i was still on BC pills. I had a very hard pregnancy with blood pressure and border line diabetic with severe weight gain. Didnt really know my due date one was 11/17 and the second was 12/22..because we never saw the same doctor when we went in. But on 12/6 i went in for my appt and the doctors informed me that my placenta stoped nurturing the baby so i needed to go in and have my son right now. THey sent me to the hospital and started me on the meds for contractions and eventually aften many hours i was dialated and ready to push…pushed for a very long time. And didnt get very far after so much time. The doc came in and was like did anyone see this blood? I was bleeding down the side of the bed from some where and then they decided i needed a csection asap and they rolled me in to have it done. (ahwful exp. but everyone was ok but my son when he was 15mo. old was diagnoed with mild CerebralPalsy not beinable walk &swallowing problems) But now my son is 3 year old &i have had on going spikes of fever/ches and pains and horrible skin. I recently went to see my gyno doc and was put on BC pills due to not having a period in a year? HELP any ideas?

So, I started my period at the beginning or very ends of every month, sometimes my period skips, sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve gotten that checked out and there’s nothing wrong with me in that area, but recently I’ve been feeling and looking bloated. Seeing as it’s a few weeks after my period, i’m a little concerned. When I push on my stomach it seems hard of full? SO I know it’s not weight gain or fat. I generally eat healthy and I quit drinking sodas. Although I took hydroxycut for about a month in October. Then I began using slimquick, with amazing results so far might I add, and I have recently cut off the drink mixes and pills due to my condition now. Along with the bloating I experience nausea in the mornings or certain times throughout the day, headaches all day except for when I eat sometimes, brown discharge or vaginal bleeding between this period, weakness and faint feeling, and lower back pain. I thought it could be a problem with my Kidneys? or maybe Ovarian Cysts? I’m really unsure. Do you have any idea what’s wrong with me? Or had any similar problems?

Well I had some ovarian cysts about 1 year and a half ago. Unfortunately for me, had a lot of scar tissue and the doctors told me that it would be hard for me to conceive. Well me and my ex didnt use protection and he just let go in me and it was no big deal. I didnt get pregnant. That went on for a year. Started dating new boyfriend and condom busted on us twice. We then decided to quit using rubbers and he lets go inside. Well we been doing that for three months now. Everyone has been talking about my weight gain and ive noticed it too. Then my nipples got super sensitive. Just a small brush sent pain. My boyfriend said he thinks Im pregnant. Well my period just came on on the 13th and I was baffled. It usually comes on at the end of the month. Its like a regular period just earlier than usual. When I woke up this morning my boyfriend said that I was burning up. He asked me was I running a fever. No morning sickness or feeling tired. Come on Ladies tell me your thoughts on this……

OK, so here’s my situation, I am a 24 year old overall healthy female. Recently my dcotor prescribed Yaz birth control to me due to having ovarian cysts. I have never been on any type of birth control for fear of what most woman fear; weight gain, bigger boobs (well some woman anyway), headaches, nasuea, etc etc etc…all the bad side effects.
Every woman’s body is different…yes I know that. But I don’t know what to do. In the recent months I have been bothered by weird acne break outs constantly that will not clear up. As soon as some clear, I break out elsewhere (it’s rather annoying)! I didn’t have acne as an adolscent, why should I have it now? I’m aslo having to deal with abnormally oily/greasy hair, which is also very annoying and very inconvenient when I have to wash and blow dry my hair every single day (which I don’t because it’s inconvenient).
My doctor attributed these symptoms of hormonal imbalances as the primary cause and therefore prescribed Yaz.
I’ve always been anti-birth control pills, but am finding myself in desperation. I am currently a C cup and DON’T want to get bigger boobs.I’ve also suffered from migraines in the past and have heard that BC can trigger them…as for my period itself, well it’s quite manageable. I have normal periods and they don’t really bother me so taking BC is not really to "regulate them" for I already am. It would be more for the acne, greasy hair and of course, to avoid pregnancy since my hubby and I are not ready for that just yet.

Anyway sorry this is so long, but has anyone else been in this or a similar situation? If so what did you do or what would you suggest?

Thanks in advance!

I am had some problems over the past year. But within the past few weeks of so I have developed a distended/bloated stomach. Seems as though I had no or minimal weight gain but difficulty getting my pants on. It starts right at the bottom of my ribcage and doesn’t stop until it it reaches my private area. It almost looks as though I am pregnant, but I know I am not. Over the past year my problmes have been with urination and pain. I sometimes get urges to go when I bend backwards. If I stretch the muscle at the bottom of me ribcage (near the sternum) I really have to go! Also, I have been getting cramps during ovulation. It really hurts inside on the left side when I urinate, like near my ovaries. But that is only for a few days to a week or of the whole month. But I do have the urge to urinate throughout. When I push semi-hard on my lower left side I feel a lump. I have had ovarian cysts before and I didn’t have symptoms like this. I have read that my symptoms could be ovarian cancer.
Oh, I forgot to mention that it is not constipation. I have regular bowel movements.
And no gas either.
I don’t eat much food containing milk. My booyfriend is lactose intolerant so we use alot of soy mik products. But I might have to consider that. I know it’s not salt causing this either. I have tried to eliminat a lot of salt out of my diets which wasn’t much, with no results.
I forgot to mention that I full very fast when I eat. I can’t even get halfway thru a meal before I start feeling full. Sometimes I have to force myself to eat it because I know I need to eat and need the nutrition.
I don’t dcrink any alcohol. And I also don’t drink carborated beverages. I drink tea and water only.
