Last year, I had two sizeable and painful ovarian cysts. While being examined for the first one, I discovered that I only had one ovary and one fallopian tube. The pain from the first persisted for nearly a month. Almost immediately after the pain had finally ceased, the second cyst formed. The pain from that lasted over a month as well. The OBGYN wrote me a prescription for Percocet and told me to call her if the pain got worse (not, if the pain persisted, only if it got worse).
It's been 9 months since my last cyst. I'm now starting to get that painful feeling again and urinating slightly more than normal. Those are the only symptoms.
What's interesting is right before I had my first cyst, I had just started taking Seasonale. I've been unhappy with the effects it's had on my body (moodiness, extended bleeding during the periods to the point that I had to take iron supplements). I"m wondering if the Seasonale indirectly causes the cysts?

The pain ranges from an almost cramp-like muscle pain to waves of pain everytime I move, walk, cough, laugh, etc.

Also, I was born without one ovary and tube, which means if I'm operated on, it's very likely that I wouldn't be able to have children naturally.

I would stop all medication & get something else & definitely stop the extra iron. Iron can contribute to cyst growth....

I have the same problem you have. In 2003 I started having pain. It was a cyst. They would go away and come back.. sometimes bigger than before. In 2004 I had to have the cyst surgically removed. This year the same thing happened on my other ovary. I had my second surgery 3 months ago and I know have one ovary and no fallopian tubes which mean I am unable to have children on my own. Its a painful process. Mine were so bad I had to leave school. I cant determine your pain for you but if its as bad as mine that you might have to have surgery. I tried all kinds of pain meds but nothing worked. I had to remove the source of the problem, my ovary and fallopian tubes. I went through this when I was 15-18 years old, I was not thinking about having children then but now I am married and I wish I could have a child. It hurts but thats life. My advise to you is that if the pain is something you can deal with then do it!!!!!! My doctor told me that it was the ovary that was the problem and they needed to remove it. It might be the same for you. I hope it allworks out for you

My revel in with a cyst used to be final yr. I used to be out of tuition for per week for the reason that I felt terrible. Dull, achy ache in my uterus, moderate fever, nausea. I did not get it looked at till a at the same time later for the reason that my mother idea it used to be some thing else and stated to not fear for the reason that it could leave. My medical professional knew what it used to be nearly immediately and did an extremely sound to assess on it. It wasn't very significant and it wasn't hazardous so he stated to attend and it will have to leave. Instead of disappearing, it burst - first it determined to 'false burst' two times, as soon as at dwelling and as soon as for the duration of my commencement, and the ones had been painful. But not anything would examine to while it fairly burst. I felt feverish and nauseous probably 30 seconds earlier than the truly ache began. It lasted for three or four hours and I used to be in such a lot ache that I used to be screaming. Usually when you've got one, except it is hazardous, they may not do a surgical procedure and also you ought to wait till it is going away or bursts. My mother had one the dimensions of a grapefruit and the medical professionals idea it used to be a moment little one. Haha. But you will have to absolutely move into the medical professionals if you happen to believe you might have one - it is well to grasp for the reason that if it bursts however you do not know what it's you'll move to the clinic they usually would grow to be doing surgical procedure for appendicitis. And there are approaches to hinder extra cysts.

Hi Jessica,
Why dont u get operated! Risk of such esurgery is extremely low! We hv good laparoscopic surgeons around who can do the job perfect!
U had only one tube and ovary...it means u were operated for ectopic surgery etc..earlier?
Anyway...ur pain wud subside as sson as u get operated...either PCOD or ovarian cystectomy...its not a big deal...don't suffer anymore.
Thanks for info on starting a business.
Regards
