Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

May be: If there is a large ovarian cyst and you have relatively severe pain it can be a surgical emergency called ovarian torsion where the ovary gets twisted along its blood supply and can choke off its own blood supply. Would recommend getting examined +/- ultrasound
