Around June-August of this year, I went to the hospital to some really bad abdominal pains. At first my mom thought they were something to do with the gall bladder or kidneys (And it couldn’t have been my appendix because I had an appendectomy when I was six) so she took me to the hospital.

When they gave us our results, they said it was there was a cyst on my right ovary. At first, they made it seem so innocent, but when I went to several other doctors they said that there are two types of cysts. A hemorrhage cyst which probably developed from my last period which is more tricky (They explained that if it gives me pain, it could twist the ovary and cut off my blood supply, reducing my chances of living) and the original kind that just stays attached to me and doesn’t do too much damage.

When I went back to the hospital, they explained it’s very important that whenever I get the pain, is to rush to the hospital. Then another time they said it wasn’t too important and just to give me Tylenol if the pain began as if it was nothing. Tomorrow, I’m going back for another MRI to see how the cyst is doing. My period is coming up in a few days (or hours) and I’m wondering if an ovarian cyst in my case is dangerous or nothing to worry about.

Just for some back info, I discovered this around late july to early august and it’s now going to december. I’m a 14 year old girl and i’m about 109 lbs. The only person who ever had this same condition in my family was my aunt to my mom’s side.
starry eyes- thnx for the information. I actually have been to the gynecologist twice.

They actually said a mix of what the doctor and hospital told me. When i went there, the doctor tried to break my hymen so they could "feel" the cyst. Very tramatizing for me xP but they did give some good advice and the doctor was very helpful…and so was your answer

I had a 4cm complex ovarian cyst in the beginning of November found by ultrasound. Follow-up ultrasound last week showed the cyst had ruptured and was gone. I had my last period on November 17th I am due for my period and took a home pregnancy test today which immediately showed up positive with dark lines. Am I pregnant or is this a false-positive caused by the cyst rupturing?

Okay, so I’m pretty sure that I have a problem with ovarian cysts. My doctor felt something on my ovaries and I went on the birth control pill but I’ve lost insurance and ran out of my re-fills and so now I’m having problems again. Every other month my period is coming late and four cycles ago I thought I was pregnant but the test was negative and then I got my period the next day. So I’m trying not to think that I’m pregnant or waste money on a test but it has been a while. My last period started on September 1st. So it’s a week and a half late. I’m nauseous and my nipples are soar which is a sign of elevated estrogen, which can be caused my cysts. I haven’t felt a single cramp so my period is at least a week off, my progesterone levels must not have fallen. So I guess my question is, it’s just the cyst right? And what am I to do about these cysts?! I can’t afford 0 to go to the doctor to get the pill. Does anybody know of any way that I can get a prescription cheap? I don’t believe that I qualify for health insurance for cheaper than 0 per month, I live in New York state.
