Question 1

4 1/2 cm ovarian cyst, what will the doctors do?

Accepted Answer

Depends: At 4 1/2 cm if it's a simple cyst, then it may not need to be operated on at all. At that size, many of these cysts do resolve on their own, considering, of course, that they are simple and filled with solely fluid.  Having said that, if the cyst is causing twisting of the ovary, if there's severe pain, then doctor might have other recommendations.

Question 3

i was diagnosed with 5.2 cm ovarian cyst. it doesn't cause me problems, i didn't even know that before the ultrasound. is surgery necessary?

Accepted Answer

Cysts will resolve: Small cysts on the ovary are very common.  The overwhelming majority will resolve on their own without surgery. Although they may hurt the best treatment is to take Ibuprofen for the pain and to wait to see if it goes away. Usually obgyns will repeat the sonogram 6-8 weeks later to confirm the cyst has resolved.

Question 5

2 cm ovarian cyst, left hydosalpinx. gyn treated with antibiotics. will it go away? never had std, why did it occur in the first place?

Accepted Answer

Hydrosalpinx: Pelvic inflammatin can occur with non STD bacteria as well and is typically less severe than the type associated with an STD.

A chlamydia trachomatis IgG can be ordered to see if that is the case.  This is a blood test.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Yes: Hi,
Typically cysts less than 6cm in the reproductive age group ( your age) will resolve spontaneously with time. You should see your doctor however if you experience  any worsening pain over the next couple of weeks to have the cyst rechecked.

Question 7

a 4.0 * 3.6 * 2.7 cm ovarian cyst is on m right ovary. how big is that? can it be dangerous during pregnancy?

Quite common: It is quite common to have an ovarian cyst in pregnancy.  Really the only way a cyst can be dangerous to your pregnancy is if it twists on itself (torsion) and requires surgical removal during the pregnancy.

Question 8

could a 2.8 cm hemmorhagic ovarian cyst cause excessive flatulence?

excessive gas for past 2 months.  2.8 cm complex ovarian cyst. how likely is it that this is ovarian cancer?  could ibs come on this suddenly?

Unlikely: Those findings not cosistantly with cancer.  Cyst small and u are young.  Try MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol) 1 dose in juice per day along with probiotics, ibs is a syndrome of alternating constipation and diarrhea, affected by anxiety, and, at times a major problem.  It's not likely that.  You should be fine! don't worry too much.
