Hi !!

I have a 6cm ovarian cyst on my left ovary that is causing me some bladder problems. I have a constant urge to pee, as if I couldn't completely empty my bladder, and I go to the bathroom every two hours at night and several times a day. My gyne says the cyst is pressing on my bladder, but can an ovarian cyst really cause all of these problems? Also, I have intermittent pain on the left side of my pelvis and diarrhea /constipation. Has anyone had similar experience with their own cyst?

I'd really appreciate any comments!!

Yes, they can definitely effect the bladder and bowels. It is very common to have those symptoms. Hope you get relief soon!
