It started with a cyst,
never thought it would come to this.........
only joking, see your GP if your that concerned, but there's nothing much to worry about.

Having just one or two little cysts on your ovaries is quite common and shouldn't cause a problem. They do sometimes like to monitor you to see if the cysts are going to come back though.
I had a cyst on my ovaries for ages (it was small so they didn't bother removing it) but when i got pregnant it just sort of disappeared! The Obs/Gyn consultant couldn't find it! Sometimes they go down on their own.
The only concern is that there is a conditon called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - where basically the womans' body does not produce enough tof the right hormones to trigger ovulation every month, so the egg folliciles remain "stuck" in the ovary and turn into cysts. In this case a woman has lots of cysts, they can be painful and she will need to have them removed. They can build up again, so she may find that she has to have successive operations on them. PCOS also causes problems with fertility. As you only had one cyst removed, it doesn't sound like you have PCOS though.

Beign cysts rarely cause major difficulties because they can be well managed. They are usually more of an annoyance than a serious concern.
It is often the position of a cyst that can cuse discomfort and irritation. Cysts can also become infected with can cause considerable pain and may require antibiotic treatment or surgical intervention.
Surgical removal of cysts is often usefull, but cannot guarantee cure because some cysts can re-occur.
Have a chat to the gyaecologist, I'm sure that they will be able to help you manage your concerns.

Cysts are a part of women's lives and are mostly disappear after a period. Having one removed doesn't necessarily mean that you will need more removed but it also doesn't mean you won't get any more. Keep track of any pain in the lower body and if it remains for more than one cycle of the period then see your doctor again. I had a cyst rupture when I was 21 and lost the ovary because of it, but had no more problems and went on to have two beautiful children. Age plays no part in the development of cysts, they just happen.

Cysts can appear anywhere. I have salivary cysts in my mouth that break once in a while. There are some that are cancerous. If you are talking about a GYN, yours are probably not occuring in the mouth. These cysts are egg follicles that kept on growing with fluid. When you are this young, these are most likely benign and will not present a major problem for your health afterwards.

Well, you're not being too specific on where your cysts were, but if you're talking cervical cysts, no. Alot of girls get them and they don't mean anything. About the gyno, you shouldn't be worried about going; you should go once a year after being sexually active and at a cergtain age you should go regardless. It only takes 5 minutes but at least you'll know everything's all right.

nothing to worry about my friend cysts are normally harmless and when they are removed the hospital checks them for any irregular cell growth(cancers)99% of cysts are harmless with no long lasting problems and virtually scar free tissue, they can however grow back sometimes butthey are only a cosmetic inconvenience a bit like warts ..
dont worry
thanks

If the cyst is benign and not in a bad spot then there is no need to worry.

You don't say what kind of cysts you had, but as long as they were removed properly you shouldn't have any problems.
