I have had an ovarian cyst before and unfortunately it ruptured and i had to go to the hospital and they just said there is nothing they could do because it was already ruptured. Now, almost a year later, having sharp pains in my lower left stomach that hurt when i sit, stand up laydown or cough. I’ve an achey yet severe stomach ache that gets worse when i eat, the feeling like im going to throw up, and i have noticed that my stomach is a tiny 'puffy' or bloated. Could this be an ovarian cyst that has not yet ruptured? Havent gone to the physicians yet, but may go today.

Thank you for all the help. =)


Answer:
I also have problems with ovarian cysts and what you described is exactly what I go through. However, I also have endometriosis, which can also be extremely painful. Has your physician ever checked to see if you might also suffer from Endometriosis?

If it were me, I would make an appointment with an Ob/Gyn and talk to him/her about your symptoms because while it does sound to me like its ovarian cysts, there are multiple other issues which could also be going on and it is always better to be safe than sorry.

Also, you might want to take into account getting on some form of birth control, unless you are currently trying to get pregnant because it can stop the ovulation which is often times what causes the cysts to start with. I know before I was put on BC pills I was in pain two or three weeks out of the month, now there's nothing other than the occasional cramping, so it is worth considering. Either way speak to your physician as soon as possible just to eliminate any other possible concerns.

Hope this helps and GOOD LUCK!


Answer:
Cysts come and go each month. It's the bodies natural way to take care of itself. My doc stated you get small cysts around the time of your monthly cycle. It could mean you have another hugh cyst and it hasn't burst yet. You might want to contact your doc, birth control pills help control cysts from becoming big and burst. Endometrosis is another problem that it sounds like. Call the physician. I've always had problems growing up, had several surgeries for and endometrosis. Take care of yourself and Good Luck at you dr. visit.

Answer:
It is quit possible, I had some ovarian cysts. My body gave me all the symptoms of a pregnancy, so if your in pain I would go to the doctor.

Answer:
I’ve small ovarian cysts. I feel the sharp pain on my lower left side. Some days I have the ability to barely walk…I'm literally limping because it hurts so bad. I do get bloated, but I've never felt nauseated. Then again, mine are small, so I'm sure if yours is more massive, it could cause that.

Talked to my doc about it and he has me taking BC pills constantly (no placebo) to keep me from ovulating. This has helped tremendously…no pain.

If it hurts that bad, I'd call your gynecologist. They can do an ultrasound to see how bad it is and if it needs followup. Good luck…I feel your pain…literally.
