    Hi Nainy87080,

    Im pretty sure you have to wait 6 weeks now for any planning.

    My advice to you is to speak with your GP to discuss your options. I was told this couldnt happen to me again after i had an 11cm cyst and ending up having my ovary removed with it. But low and behold i have another 3cm cyst on my remaining ovary with a high chance i am going to lose it in surgery. I dont not have any children and im nearly 27. 

    So my advice is get going after the 6 week mark and dont look back as yuo do not know how long it will be before it could happen again!

      Reading your post has just made me cry!

      When did you find out you had a cyst on your other ovary from having your 11cm cyst removed?

      Sending all the love in the world!! X

    Was told by my Dr that the removal of my ovary wouldn't effect any future kids or lessen my fertility..  Hope that is the same for you and you are still able to have kids if planned.  I would agree though you have to wait at least 6 weeks but I would start the planning shortly there after cause I have been hearing a lot of people say that they have repeated scares once 1 cyst has been found.  sad  Is it just lovely!!
