Accepted Answer

: With a "bloated stomach", and pelvic/abdominal pain, "around back and in hip and buttocks", while some elements may be "sciatic nerve compression", ovarian disease (cyst or complex tumor) needs evaluation : see your gyn for an exam and other testing (ultrasound of pelvis) and after that, a referral to a neurologist for evaluation as well.

is a 6 cm simple ovarian cyst something to worry about? 25. my said its benign filled with fluid. she said it will go away on its own. it causes me pain though. should i get a second opinion? i read online this is too big for a simple cyst?

Accepted Answer

: If your (GYN) physician has seen the imaging study and the cyst is a simple one (without complex echogenic structure within) the 6 cm cyst will eventually resolve spontaneously, and may take a followup imaging study if the pain persists. With a less than 10 cm cyst with no internal echo structure, a biopsy is not yet indicated.

Accepted Answer

No: Iuds generally don't have any effect on the ovary.

Question 10

what are the causes of ovarian cyst in a girl?

Accepted Answer

Many: Small "cysts" of the ovary are common and a normal part of the ovary developing "eggs." at times this process goes haywire and a baseball size or ^ fluid filled cyst and form. Frequently, they "dissolve" and no treatment is needed. However, these patients should see a gyn doctor and be followed since it is possible for these "cysts" to form more serious masses that could need surgical treatment.
