Ovarian Cysts: Everything You Need to Know by Dr. Lora Shahine

[@emmagreen8912]

I went to the hospital today with pain, nausea, bloating and swelling belly, I was diagnosed with an ovarian cyst but was given no information just send home and told take pain medication and i should be fine after ovulation if not go back to doctor.. I wish I'd found this video this morning. i would have known what to ask them. Thank you for some information 🙏

[@sarahdave7261]

I've been suffering from ovarian cysts for about 6 years. I'm 32. I had twins 4 years ago, and since their birth, my pain has had a huge increase. I'm not one to cry, or admit that I'm hurting. These cysts keep rupturing and I can't even crawl myself to the bed. I scream in pain. I've gone, a handful of times to the ER, only to lie on a stretcher for at least 6 hours (with an IV painkiller, if I'm lucky.) After I'm finally admitted, they ask me if I'm pregnant. I tell them "no." They do a pregnancy test. I'm not pregnant... So then they take another two hours to schedule an internal ultrasound. They find small traces of fluid that could be from a ruptured cyst. They give me a handful of painkillers, and send me on my way. I was at the end of the rope. this condition leaves me debilitated for a good five days out of every month. I'm a single mom, and a strong woman who has to be in severe pain to not get out of bed with twin four-year-olds... I found comment about Adam on a site, I reached out to him and told him my problems, his words were "don't worry, your suffering will end after taking my medication". I ordered his herbal medication took it as prescribed and the medication flushed out the cysts. I haven't experienced any signs of pain ever since then and my Ovarian cysts are gone too. you can also contact Dr Adam on [e-mail] or [e-mail]

My experience with ovarian cyst symptoms was that I felt like I had to pee all the time. I planned trips around bathroom availability. Bowel movements were difficult and not very productive. Adding fiber to my diet did not help. I had a perpetual “mom” belly. Nothing that I tried helped to reduce it. Once a new and alarming symptom appeared I sought medical help immediately. I found out that I had two very large ovarian cysts. In my case the only solution was surgery. That new and alarming symptom was severe right sided pain. My right ovarian cyst / ovary twisted. It hurt so bad. I thought that it just had to be appendicitis but the symptoms of appendicitis did not match my symptoms. Fortunately for me it untwisted quickly but that experience got my attention. I did not want to feel that pain again. I had my ovarian cysts surgically removed and I feel so much better. The urgency to pee is gone and bowel movements are back on track. I’ve had to tighten my belt by several notches too.

@@Vee-nz4zp they can untwist??? Maybe that’s what’s happening to me. Sharp, pain that’s from my groin on my right where the cysts are, but they’re small. I have two currently, 2 cms each, just got another ultrasound done (thought it was my IUD, but it’s not.) Only happens after intercourse or crazy movements from a bumpy car ride. (I just want it out, that’s how painful it is.)

[@Vee-nz4zp]

In my case yes my ovary / ovarian cyst untwisted and rather quickly. I would have gone to the emergency room due to the pain if it didn’t. A little background may help. I’m past child bearing age. My ovarian cysts were 10+ cm and previously unknown to me. Routine doctor visits during the pandemic were not prioritized. My ovarian cysts would have never resolved on their own.

[@bethmoze]

I had a 9 cm dermoid cyst, no symptons at all until the torsion started. The pain was something out of this world, I was unable to stand on my feet or breath. Eventually I stopped feeling my arms and legs, cause I wasn't breathing and the oxygen supply was so little. I thank the paramedics that were so firm with me and didn't put me in a stretcher until I started breathing. I ended up with laparascopy to remove the cysts, but later on a hydrosalpinx developed and the tube closer to that ovary became blocked :-( I'm a very healthy person in general, regular cycles with no pain, and nobody in my family has had something like that, so the cause for me is a mystery...

[@drlorashahine]

I'm so sorry you for your experience 🫂Thank you for sharing for us ❤️

[@isabelalder9998]

Sorry for your ovarian pain & issues w/ such but thank you very much for sharing this as it helps to clarify some current symptoms I'm having as well.

[@ninabetrippin4803]

When this happened to me I was rush to the hospital where I later fainted I was sweating massively and they did not find anything wrong with me until I fainted and I woke up inside the surgery room. They told me that I had a topic pregnancy and they would have to remove one of my fallopian tube I was so young(28)I didn’t understand anything They told me they told me they would have to remove one of my tubes,I thought I couldn’t have any more kids I was crushed I already have two healthy boys b4 this ,The surgery was successful and my Fallopian tube is working better than four women fallopian tubes put together if I never made it to the hospital I wouldn’t be here today my oldest son save My Life💎 I fell on the floor and he called 911 for me. It was 3 o’clock in the morning. I was just using the bathroom. A topic pregnancy is no joke. I was cut across my stomach it’s a little C-section mark across my bikini line ,I had my kids naturally so I give it up to the momma’s that had to get cut cause man the healing process was hell lol😅 that’s a moment I will never forget that’s a scar that I will aways remember forever a topic pregnancy is no joke

[@allisonstar4614]

What I would like to know is why the radiologist called my cysts "complex"? Does that mean the cysts can be any of the 5 type of cysts? I also would love to know why I have 2 complex cysts on one ovary?

[@RamanDeep-gz9jd]

How u recover from this ?

[@analilyespinoza3518]

I had a 9cm dermoid cyst. Didn’t know I had one unlit I woke up one day with a dull unbearable pain and discomfort. Ended up in the ER because I could not sleep and barely walk from the pain. Found out it was a dermoid cyst that had teeth and hair and ended up getting the cyst and ovary removed. I have been in birth control (the pill) for a few years and have had normal ish periods. With getting a cyst removed are there hormone imbalances? And if so how can you balance the hormones?

[@erikas.1303]

I was just told this week that I have to have an ovary removed because the cyst is bilateral. Have you noticed any changes with just one ovary?

[@sarahdave7261]

What did you do about your ovarian Dermoid cyst? I have also been suspected of having one.

[@YouthGuiders-24]

Hi, everyone. I am diagnosed with 7.5cm right Adnexal cyst with severe pain in right as well as the left side. But doctor suggest me to take medicine for 3 months and then they decide what to do next. i had no periods from last two months before diagnoses a cyst. Suggest me what i do?

[@carda5967]

Im no expert, just wanted to do a quick search to see what you were asking, is your cyst on the ovary? wht kind of medicine is it? maybe look tht up to see what it does. just something Im trying because Ive seen a few with good results... something as simple as fasting can heal these things and/or cutting out most sugar and carbs. when Ive done low carb before my cyst pain stopped for months and Ive seen where it helps with many related problems. I wish you the best!

Now I have to take period induction medication, so I can finally start the Letrozole. I don’t want to give up on Metformin, but I don’t want to miss another two months of trying. No one has been super helpful on if this is normal/what the chances are for Metformin to do this, so if you do this topic I’d be forever grateful!

I had emergency appendectomy, my dr said i almost died, I had went into the emergency room complaining of ovary pain.

What I don't get and never understand at all why all this medical fields they have different opinion about this ovary cyst. If a women complains and go ask for help that bothered the doctor immedialy diagnosed you base on what you told them and give you a medicine instead of let do deep doing the test. I swear I do believe this all medical field people they only doing there jobs because of the money. I said this because I've been with a lot of pain told them the medicine not working till I was bleeding for 2 months non stop and they all heavy I become anemic because of this. All of sudden they told me I have big tumor/fibroid growing in my cervic. I wanna slap that doctor so bad but I didn't because she told me you gonna need a surgery right within a week.
