Maybe: Wow, i'm so sorry that's happening to you. I can't imagine your pain. If you already have a 5cm recurrent endometrioma, most gyn doctors are going to recommend removal, laparoscopically. These cysts don't go away on their own, and can cause problems associated with infertility and scarring. Best if already 5cm that you have removed. In terms of pain, you may consider nsaid, such as ibuprofen.
