A member asked:
Can cyst cause you to miss periods? do they cause pregnancy symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, Yes: The majority of varian cysts, unless massive in size and compressing other structures, are benign in nature. Some larger cysts can cause severe pain, and can damage other 'normal' bodily structures around them by compression. The symptoms can mimic pregnancy, and usual therapy includes birth control pills, and in severe cases, surgery.
