I have an appt with my dr scheduled for next week but was wondering if anyone could briefly provide me with a breakdown of what the symptoms are of an ovarian cyst. I've been having some discomfort near my pelvic area. I also have had nauesa as well.
I'm not sure if I should be worrying because I have been on the pill for about a month. Does birth control change anything? Thanks

I had one and it always felt like pointing/stabbing pain in the area of my ovary. I also has fibroids and was just a female mess so to speak. I was diagnosed thru ultrasound to confirm what I had as Dr's. kept telling me it was just period symptoms. Needless to say a hysterectomy took care of all of it.

I had ovarian cysts in High School. Basically take whatever menstrual cramps you've ever had and multiply by about 1000 when you ovulate on that side. The treatment they gave me was to put me on the pill so I would suspect that would make you feel better not worse. Where are you having pain? If it's generalized it could be either a yeast infection or a bladder infection. The pill can cause nausea in some people. These two symptoms can be two different things going on. The Pill should be effective within 24 hours of starting it (at least that was the case for me 22 years ago read the insert in your package). If the pain gets worse or becomes sharp see a doctor right away. Your appendix is located in the lower right of your abdomen and you don't want to let that go as it can be life threatening. You are doing the right thing in seeing your doctor. If your pain gets worse go see him immediately as pain is your body's way of telling you something is wrong.

Theres no-one here you should really take advice from on that..Your health is of main concern..Wait and listen to your doctor. But if it makes you feel any better I have pains in that area ALL the time but have nothing wrong. Did you know Ovulation can be very painful?

There are different types of cysts that a woman can have on her Ovary. I had a dermoid cyst which grew teeth, hair and liver. I had emergency surgery for mine because it ruptured. This does not necassary mean that you have the same. Different cysts cause different symptoms. It is common in women to have cysts who infact don't even know that have got one until it starts to grow.

birth control should help your cyst from flaring up.. i have one and my doctor recommended anti inflammatory pills like bc and ibuprofen... i know it gets really painful.. staying away from alcohol and tobacco helps... nausea is normal because it is your stomach area and when it gets too painful, it makes you a lil nauseaus.. you'll be okay.. c your doctor regularly.
