EVEN IF WE CAN WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO BE PREGNANT ANDDD HAVE THE CYST?? IM VERY SCARED, TO THE POINT OF TEARS BECUASE OF MY PAST EXPERIENCE WITH THEM, I HAD A C SECTION LIKE SURGERY WITH A 5 INCH LONG CUT ALONG MY ABDOMEN, AND I DONNNNT WANT IT BACK OR TO SEE MY GIRL GO THRU THE SAME THING. ALSO IS THERE ANY WAY TO TAKE CARE OF THE CYST WITHOUT SURGERY??? THANKS GUYS.

Dermoid cyst on ovary?
Most cysts will resolve themselves on their own. I have had large cysts on my left ovary for 10 years and I've never had surgery. My doctor put me on birth control and that worked for a while until I wanted a baby. Now, I have an organic diet and that has allowed my most recent cysts to resolve themselves. Don't panic just yet. She should be able to get pregnant still she may just have to wait until the cyst is gone. Have her try eating organic as pesticides and hormones in non-organic foods can aggravate cysts or promote new growth.
Reply:There are some meds that can shrink the size of cysts but no there is no other way for you to get rid of them unless they just go away on there own. I know someone who got pregnant and had a healthy baby with cyst in her uterus they just had to monitor it to make sure it did not get bigger with the baby and she did have a lot of discomfort. Also if the surgery did not involve cutting into the uterus or tubes then I wouldn't worry because the uterus is a separate muscle under then abdomen. If they did cut into the uterus then that's no biggie many women have healthy pregnancies after c-sec.
Reply:I had a cyst many years ago,before I had my son so yes! you still can get preg if you have an extra ovary in fact the one ovary will get bigger to make up for the lost one. the cyst I had was about the size of a grapefruit,and it had damaged my appendix,my tube,and ovary.so those also had to be removed.I was 18 then,they also had to cut me along my hair line which hurt like hell..and then 12 years later I got preg and had a 11 pound boy Yes!11 pounds...and he was a c-section so they had to re cut me on my hair line, but it didn't hurt as bad because of scare tissue build up...usually the only way to get rid if that stuff is having surgery those cyst are nasty and the sooner you get them out the better!! GOOD LUCK!!
