Ovarian Cyst and trying to concieve?
I just recently was told I have an small right side ovarian cyst. It pretty much just gives me painful cramping 2x a week. I want to get rid of it. I have a thyroid problem that was just recently completely out of whack. Which i was told could possibly what caused the cyst. I am going to start "trying" at the end of the month. Will being pregnant make the cyst go away? It is the same as being on birth control?(this isn't why i want to get prenant by the way)
Ovarian Cyst and trying to concieve?
I have Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome, which is a big fancy word for cysts on my ovaries a bunch of them. I am currently 8 months pregnant. It took a while for me to get pregnant but, I am and the chances of the cysts going away are good after being pregnant. So, I think your chances are pretty good. Good Luck, and don't get down on yourself if it don't take the first month.

Thyroid Cyst? - Doctors & Nurses?
Almost three years ago my daughter had a tonsillectomy %26amp; adenoidectomy. Approx 8 months later she developed a lump at the base of her throat, she didn't tell us anything about it initially, until it grew in size.
Tests proved it was a 3 1/2 cm thyroid cyst which was aspirated using FNA last December. We were told by the Endocrinologist these normally do not come back.
Now it's 9 months later and she has the same lump in the same location. She says it's getting bigger really fast. This was just brought to my attention this evening. She is now 20 y/o.
My questions are:
1) Could the thyroid cyst be a complication of tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy?
2) How common is it for a thyroid cyst to come back?
3) Will anti-biotics help?
4) Should we see the same Endocrinologist? We were not comfortable with that particular doctor, but he does have her records.
Thyroid Cyst? - Doctors %26amp; Nurses?
1) A thyroid cyst is definitely not a complication from having a
T/A.
2) Rare, but it can happen.
3) No, antibiotics do not affect a cyst.
4) Yes, definitely see the same endocrinologist. They already are familiar with the past diagnosis and treatment. Continuing care with the same professional is important. These folks are specialists and as such may be a little weird or not have the best personalities, but they're smart.
Reply:I dont now do yao?
Reply:1. Probably not.
2. Very
3. No
4. No- you just call your old doctor's office and tell them to fax your records to the fax number of the new doctor, easy as that.
Reply:Probably not a complication of earlier surgery
Thyroid cysts come back.
Antibiotics won't help unless doctor finds an infection.
Choose a new endocrinologist if you are not comfortable.
Good Luck.
Reply:I can tell you from personal expierence you have to call your Endo. They are sometimes rare to come back but they can and without concern. I also have a nodule mine is being treated with medication. But my levels are also off. But I can tell you that you Endocrine system regulates alot more than just metobolism. Because of this issues with my thyroid my hair falls out, i m real tired, my menstrual cycle has ceased. its a big deal nothing to play around with. The worst case senerio if her nodule was not cancerous before and i pray is not this time is that they aspirate again or remove the thyroid. I am not a doctor , but going through simular problem. And certainly not telling you what to do. But I would 100 % call the endo because he is going to want to rule that out.
If not comfortable with that doc. You can find another and they will transfer your records when yougo to see the new one the nurse will call over and you will sign a release form and they can fax it to new doc. You never have to stay with some one you dont like. Your in charge you pay the bills. They are there to assist you.
Good luck and i wish her well.
Reply:She needs to be examined by another Endocrinologist, I don't think that the prior surgery has anything to do with what is going on with her thyroid now, she should have the lump aspirated again and have it tested, she may end up having her thyroid removed if it is abnormal, they can check it out by doing a blood test, in most cases they can put her on thyroid medications if needed and the lump will disappear.

Ovarian Cyst and Hot flashes?
A few weeks ago I found out I have a 2.65 cm cyst on my ovary...I have had the symptoms for over 6 weeks now, but I also have hot flashes...are they symptoms of a cyst also? Also I have an IUD place and my dr thinks that the IUD is causing all of my cramping (which feels worse than labor contractions) But why would it only cause pain on one side instead of both? Now I have to go in this week and get the IUD removed (which makes the IUD a total waste of money now..ive had it for 4 weeks) I can't go a day without being in severe pain..and Im sick of it. I just wish drs in WI were smart and would just remove the stupid cyst.
Ovarian Cyst and Hot flashes?
Hot flashes have nothing to do with cysts. You did not say how old you are but maybe its time to have your hormone level get checked to see if, by any chance, you are entering menopause. This can happen to young women too. If the IUD does cause severe cramping it has to be taken out, the doctors cannot predict it before inserting. The doctors must have you checked up every few month because of your cyst, it needs watching to ensure its not malignant.

Ovarian cyst???
I went to the ER a few months ago b/c I was bleeding %26amp; pregnant- suspected miscarriage/ectopic pregnancy. Anyway, at the ER they did a transvaginal ultrasound to see what was going on and happened to find a 21mm cyst on my right ovary (which made total sense b/c I had been having a stabbing pain in my right ovary and had suspected an ectopic pregnancy. I was pregnant, not ectopic but blighted ovum, which I ended up miscarrying that weekend.) The u/s tech spent a lot of time looking at it. When they were getting ready to discharge me they talked to me about the blighted ovum and then mentioned VERY briefly that I had a cyst but didn't seem worried about it in the least. In my sadness about the m/c I didn't ask more. The stabbing pain went away. A few days later I went to the OBGyn for a followup on my miscarriage, and they did another transvaginal u/s. The tech didn't say anything except that I had definitely miscarried. I called recently and the nurse said there is no info about a cyst
Ovarian cyst???
I knew a young girl that would gt them %26amp; they would be painful %26amp; eventually they would burst. she had to go home frm work sometims it hurt so badly. But yes,you can get them over again.
Your dr. should've advised you about this. Do you have a gyn? it'd really help to have a good reputable gyn.
%26amp; i had a miscariage before i had my daughter,,i was 3 months but the baby had died at 2. i didn't know it. I felt so badly! then i got pg really quickly.
Reply:http://www.medicinenet.com/ovarian_cysts...
You can get them over and over again. My doctor just told me to take Tylenol and go home. I can feel them from time to time. But unless they are real bad they won't do anything.
And sorry for your loss. I have had two miscarries-one was twins(that would have been fun) But they left at three months so no one cares. So I just made another-I really wanted a baby. It eased the pain.
Reply:Get tested for Polycystic Ovary disease. That is what this sounds like. If they wont give you a test , then get another OBGYN. I have the same problem where you get cysts on the ovaries and this can prevent you from having babies, get yourself tested. I had a baby even though, I have it.

Ovarian cyst (answers from only women with experience with ovarian cyst)?
I have a ovarian cysts on both ovarys and it is so painful i had the same pain from my miscarriage its non stop.had problems since my miscarriage could my cyst be from the miscarriage?
Ovarian cyst (answers from only women with experience with ovarian cyst)?
In actuality, an ovarian cyst is considered a normal part of the menstural cycle; I didn't know this until I experienced my first one. I don't think your miscarriage created these - I am sorry for your loss.
Cysts are painful, but the pain usually catches you off guard, is sharp in nature, the quieten downs to a dull ache. If you are having severe pain, you need to go see your GYN. Sometimes cysts have to be removed when they do not dissolve on their own. I was shocked to learn when I had my hysterectomy back in April that there was a cyst the size of a golf ball on my right ovary; it was there and I never knew it.
Take some ibuprofen and place a towel-wrapped heating pad on your stomach for comfort.
Good luck and i hope you feel better soon.
Reply:I had a softball size cyst removed from my ovary a year ago, and I miscarried. When I miscarried that's when they seen it, but I was only pregnant barely 2 months. The cyst was already there. I know the pain your feeling, I couldn't imagine having 2 of those suckers! Are they inoperable? Cyst's are caused from a high level of hormones, generally there genetic. If they want to operate let them, and ask if you could have laparoscopic surgery. I had that done, and they made 3 small cuts, barely noticeable. I wish you luck, and ask your doctor if he can remove them if that's possible. Best wishes, and I'm sorry for your loss.
Reply:I have no idea whether it could be related to your miscarriage, I would think no - but I'm not a Dr.
I do feel for you - I had severe ovarian cysts for years. It was extremely painful. Mine hurt off and on all the time - no relation to my menstrual cycle. Somethimes the pain would last for days. My Dr. gave me Rx pain killers, which helped some. But I did eventually have to have surgery. The first two surgeries they made 3 one inch incisions and removed the cysts. The surgery was very easy and I went home the same day. I had some pain for a couple days, but nothing like the cysts. But unfortunately both times the cysts grew back. My third surgery my Gynocologist decided to just insert a large needle (I was out cold - didn't feel it) and drain the fluid out of the cysts. The membrane collapsed on itself and formed scar tissue, which prevented cysts from growing back. I never had pain after that. The only problem with the scar tissue now is that my right ovary gets a sharp pain when I ovulate - it only lasts about 10 seconds. And it ended up being a good thing - it helped me conceive both of my children on my first try.

Ovarian Cyst?
About a month ago i went to the hospital because i was complaining of pressure pain in my pelvic area (i.e. the uterus, lower stomach) and they did a CT scan and noticed clear pelvic fluid and decided it was from a cyst that had ruptured. I then went to my gyno on wednesday and he did my pelvic exam and noticed I had blood at the top of my uterus and I actually started my period 3 hours later but he wanted to do an ultrasound on me a week after i started my period to see my ovaries when they r most enlarged to see if im prone to cysts. The period I had was so bad like I had really bad cramping and the period ended today im pretty sure and I still feel like bloated out like pressure is just sitting there in my pelvic area/lower abdomen. i also feel like im having cramping around that area almost like menstrual cramping. Could this mean I may have another cyst?
Ovarian Cyst?
It could but it doesn't necessarily mean this. Thank god your already in the process of having it all checked because if you do have one and they catch it now it can be removed and treated without any problems at all.
Make sure you have your other ultrasound done and best of luck to you. This kind of women's business is always a little scary but at least you've caught on to it quickly enough.
Best of luck to you.
