A member asked:

Is it possible for an ovarian cyst to rupture and cause slight cramping?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes possible: Yes cysts will rupture due to thin wall, pressure builds up by fluid accumulation , like follicular cysts do rupture and cause discomfort, luteal cysts may cause small amount of bleeding , rarely large tumor cysts may, usually due to trauma only way to find the problem is examination by your gyn doctor.
