How can I help my ovarian cysts?

Posted , 5 users are following.

So I get quite large cysts in my ovaries. Doctor has said they seem normal, however they cause me pain on a daily basis. Apart from removal, does anyone know of any other things I could do to help the pain?

These cysts cause me pain while walking, doing exercise, lying straight, stretching up, during sex, when needing the toilet, etc.

I should probably add I currently have one cysts which is 7cm and is sat in between my ovaries, but coming from the right ovary.

    Hi I'm so surprised they won't do anything.

    I had mine removed alongside with my ovaries 6 weeks ago. And mine were 6cm and caused me no pain.

    I would go for a second opinion if I was you.

    Good luck

    Yep, that's no answer! Get a second opinion. You shouldn't be suffering like that.

    Hey, with the symptoms you have long term you would be better with removal. However if you ask your gynae they can give you more effective pain relief.
