Ovarian cysts?
Question:
Answers:
I suffer from ovarian cysts, and my best friend had one removed a year ago. For both of us it was quite a different experience so I'll break them down for you.
Me:
I had pain like you were describing, no vomiting, no spotting. My gynocologist did a sonogram, and placed me on birth control pills to help shrink the cysts. She said they will be recurrent but if they stay the way they are they will continue to respond to the bc and will not need to be surgically removed. It's been 1 year and I still have slight symptoms, but just had a check-up and the cysts remained small.
My Best friend
All of a sudden became very very ill feeling. She was vomiting nothing but bile every 5 minutes or so, had severe pains that caused her not to be able to move. Went to the ER, was examined, told about her cyst and told to follow-up with a GYN. The vomiting stopped happening so often, but she would still have days where she would vomit once or twice, had days where pain was soooo bad going to the bathroom was hard because she had to move. Her GYN also prescribed her birth control pills to shrink the cyst. The problem for her was that her cyst managed to grow while on the pills. They surgically removed the cyst about a year ago, and she's been fine ever since.
It would be in your best interest to make an appointment with your gyno for a pelvic exam, and perhaps a sonogram. I hope you don't have an ovarian cyst... they suck, and are painful, even to do simple things like sneeze, cough, or go over a bump in a care, but luckily they are treatable either through surgery or bc pills. Good Luck! :-)
Most ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs or pockets within or on the surface of an ovary. They occur as the result of normal ovarian functions, including ovulation (the release of an egg, called ovum, from the ovary) and hormone production. Because these cysts are produced from normal ovarian function, they are called functional cysts.
These fluid filled sacs are commonly referred to as simple cysts, and are almost always benign. Cysts that are solid or contain both solids and fluids (known as complex cysts) might not always be benign and require further investigation.

My ex wife had ovarian cysts, that ruptured and she had pain in the lower pelvic region. She did not experience nausea, or spotting but intense pain. Took her to the trauma center and they gave her meds for the pain.
I would go to the doctor, or trauma center and have yourself checked out, to rule out appendicits, or an ectopic preg.
can u have babies if this happen does it affect pregnancy because my left ovary ive been having intense pain also
