A : A variety of things could be going on. Yes an ovarian cyst is possible. A urinary tract infection (uti), std's, vaginal infections etc. Are all possible. Pregnancy should be ruled out with a pregnancy test and all the other issues can be investigated by your doctor with simple testing in the office. If your doctor believes you have an ovarian cyst, a special type of ultrasound will be ordered to visualize your ovaries.
Best of luck.
