I am having intense pain as I have a cyst that is 6mm big in my right ovary and also attached to my colon. I'm told this needs to come out. Anyone else go through this and if so what was your outcome ?

So i have this ovarian cyst. It's been giving me hell for a while now. And im not sure what can be dome to make me more comfortable. I was told to wait til September for another ultrasound, and to come back to the er once im vomiting and hunched over in pain. But something can be done, no? I hope so, because im lost & confused

My gynecologist told me that she felt a pelvic mass on a bimanual exam that suggested to her that I might have an endometrioma or more on the other side of my vaginal cuff. She also noted a polyp on the vaginal side of the cuff that might be endometriosis. Why would a transvaginal ultrasound and a CT scan find absolutely nothing, when I was in so much pain that I needed hydromorphone in the ER to control it?

Hello
It's my first time posting about this. I was told last weekend after going to emergency room with what I thought was appendicitis that I had 2 ovarian cysts and endometriosis (1 on each ovary). One is about 5cm and one is almost 8cm
I have an appointment with a gynecologist next week and I am really scared. I want kids one day, and have been using NAC and DIM supplements as well as turmeric and omega 3s in hopes that it will help shrink them or help with the pain.

I'm specifically asking women who still have their ovaries and are premonopause are not on any hormone inhibitors (like Lupron). It is so weird to me because it starting showing in my bloodwork after excision surgery and my hysterectomy (complete, not radical) that I have low estrogen levels. I figured it was my body adjusting to the excising of the endometriomas as well as maybe the removal of my tubes, but the low estrogen has continued to stay abnormally low and I am definitely experiencing… read more

New here but sadly not to endometriosis. Obviously I live with the burden of this disease running my life and marriage so after a year of being told I need a hysterectomy I have scheduled it. The Dr is saying 6 weeks for healing. We are doing laparoscopic with the possibility of abdominal removal as I have Stage 4 and it is covering my bowels and possibly reached my bladder. Any of you who have had a hysterectomy please tell me how long did it take until you could move around at least for an… read more

After reading a lot of people’s stories on here, I’m starting to doubt getting the surgery from seeing so many women having more problems after surgery than before. I really want to be able to have a baby and I do have “simple” and “complex” ovarian cyst that go up and down in size also they said I have “endometriomas” on my ovaries through MRI at my first hospital stay last November. Im not sure if those are the ones that grew into the complex cyst I have now? I’m so confused now with all my… read more

Hi! I had my first laparoscopy a week ago and endometriosis stage 1 was confirmed. It was primarily found on both ovaries and my bladder and part of my bowel was adhered to my abdomen. My question is how the stages can correlate to infertility, due to the fact it was found on both my ovaries.

Also I believe they did ablation to remove the endo, is it likely it will come back in the future? Even at stage 1?

I’ve always suspected endometriosis, but now I have the diagnosis I feel relieved to… read more
