Question 1

what would be the diff btw the pain in the colon and ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

Timing: Ovarian pain is usually almost constant and sharp.  Colon pain is sporatic and crampy.  Usually it is accompanied by loose stools, or long stringy stools or rounded small stools.  Also could have constipation.
Ovarian cysts also cause pain with intercourse or with excercise.  Hope this info helps!

Question 2

had ct w/o cont of kidneys to check for stones and only ovarian cyst was found.wld ct such as that also have shown organs such as my colon/intestines?

Accepted Answer

Yes: but unless the radiologist reading the film as asked to turn his/her attention to a specific organ yoy cannot "count on" the test" picking up"everything  in your abdominal cavity!  What are you concerned about?

Hope this helps!

Talk to your GYN: Your personal GYN can best answer for your specific case, but generally if the cyst is enlarging and causing symptoms by pressing against your colon it may be best treated surgically.  See link for more information on ovarian cysts.

Question 5

on a ultrasound report. what does it mean to have a collapsed descending colon? 
also should i consult my gynaecologist for a hemorragic ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

Choice of words: The descending colon is basically a bag/tube where feces is stored. When you poop it empties &amp; the walls fold in on themselves until more poop moves in. The ovaries occasionally form hemorrhagic cysts. It is not particularly notable or in need of any treatment. Without more information about why a study was done, little can be said.

Question 6

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 7

how big is a 3.2 x 4.8 x 5.0 ovarian cyst? what can i do to treat it?.  im afraid it could grow bigger or even cause any serious problems.

Accepted Answer

Above average size.: Those measurements are in centimeters, so about and 1.5x2x2 inches. Most cysts are a bit smaller. However, it's not uncommon for women your age to have ovarian cysts. Most rupture on there own, and may cause pain when they do. Your ob/gyn will guide you regarding management. If a cyst is painful, or continues to grow it may need intervention, but usually not.

Question 8

i'm facing some problem. can an ovarian cyst cause vagina for itching?

Accepted Answer

Not likely.: Vaginal itching symptoms are probably caused by infection or irritation, unrelated to ovarian cyst.

Question 9

i have ovarian cyst 19mm. can this cause any problems in getting pregnant? i never had hormonal problems.

Accepted Answer

Pretty small: That is a very small cyst. Obviously your doctor will need to address your specific situation but in general that cyst is so small it would be hardly noticeable.

Question 10

after successful ovarian cyst removal operation my weight increase upto 12kg can u give me reason for this problem & reduce my wieght through cycling?

Accepted Answer

No Relation: Surgery  and or cyst removal should not affect your weight at all. It is possible as a result of surgery you are less active. But would definitely see your doctor since weight loss should not result from surgery.
