A member asked:

Had spotting for 2days. tested 2 days afterwards. negative .went to doctor b/c of sharp pain in right side he said could be a cyst. could this be true?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Some cysts produce hormones, which can produce bleeding. If you symptoms worsen, or don't improve, see your doctor again, and take another pregnancy test in a week or so just to be sure. Hope this helps!
