Hi I had my right ovary, tube and 12cm cyst removed 2 weeks and 3 days ago.
When I go to the toilet often it's uncomfortable at the end of my wee, I get like a pain like in my lower tummy. I went back to the hospital a week ago but they just gave be water infection antibiotics and It cleared it for a while but it seems to be back again. Sometimes it's more painful than others so it's not one constant ache. Has anyone else experienced this? And is this part of recovery or something more serious? I would be grateful for any advice thanks

I didn't have symptoms to start with. I went for a 12 week pregnancy scan and they told me I had it then. They said it was complex but I opted not to have surgery during pregnancy as I didn't want to put any risk to my baby. It was only 5cm then. So 6 week after I had my baby I had a follow up and it had grown to 12cm and was still complex with my CA125 raised to 59 so they wanted it out. At this point I was having back ache and kept getting like period pain every now and then on my right side which seemed to be worse when I stood up but if I sat and relaxed it eased. I was so scared of cancer and right up to the operation I would cry and worry but the day after the op the consultant came to me and said the cyst looked like a dermoid cyst and these are mostly benign. She said it still needs to be tested but that she isn't worried. Well i felt like I had won the lottery! I have a follow up in 2 more weeks so she will probably go in more detail then so I will do an update on here. I feel so much better though and the back ache and side pain has totally gone. It's just this business with me weeing that I need to get sorted now lol! I hope you get sorted soon. All I would say is don't worry because if you do need an op it's not half as bad as you would imagine it to be! Good luck!

Hi Elizabeth. I had a 10cm cyst on the left ovary removed along with both tubes and overies. I am 3 weeks post op, I had really bad pain on the left side the doctor first thought it was bowel related and gave me antibiotics this happened twice last year and once the beginning of this year . So the doctor sent me for a scan as she felt a lump in my tummy that's when they found the cyst. Some people get no pain others a lot . Xx karen

I'm 19 and I have the same problem...I had laparascopy 3 months ago due to 7cm ovarian cyst. After a month I started having bad back pain, it was painful to do something. It's better now because I went to physiotherapy for 3 weeks. I still have a slight pain and pins and needles every now and then...but now I started having pain when I urinate, and it hurts when I bend, and I have a feeling like my scars are hurting as well. I went to dr. I may have another cyst but it's only 17mm, she gave me some pills and that's all. I made an appointment with my gyn in 2 weeks but I'm so worried. It's 3 moths and it's all the same...
