cysts.

[gasolinehorseys.livejournal.com]

hello, i'm new. hi, hi. i'd like to start out by asking a question, if i may. i sincerely hope this wasn't asked yet. if so, i apologize. anyway...

i was diagnosed with a follicle cyst on my left ovary a few weeks ago.

my boydoctor didn't offer up much information, and i've gone to several women's health sites dearly looking for some information without much luck on treatment, if you will, since it seems like i'm always feeling ill.

so, my question is, does any one know any helpful sites, or experiences with cysts, or a good way of getting some information since my doctors don't find any interest in helping me with this.

i'd appreciate it greatly.

xoxo.

I have one too. It isn't necessarily a problem. If it isn't causing you any pain, here in the UK they generally just leave well alone, and it will probably go away of its own accord in a few months. If it does cause pain, it can often be removed during a laparoscopy (where they make a couple of small incisions and put a little camera inside to see what's going on), and the Pill or other hormonal contraception is supposed to reduce the risk of it recurring.
