Another great video, Steph…

It’s important to note that there are many different types of ovarian cysts. Some cysts are endometriomas but others are not. For example, I have endo but I have never had the ovaries as a site for my endo. However, I had a 3″ ovarian cyst removed during my 2004 surgery. My pelvic pain specialist told me that *any* woman of child-bearing age can get ovarian cysts and that the type I had was one of those types (it was not a chocolate cyst/endometrioma).

Were you on birth control to shrink the cysts? I am almost 6 months out from my surgery and at endo of Lupron but in pain again and am pretty sure it is more cysts. I don’t want to have surgery again! I’m hoping bith control will help.

I was not on birth control. I did a dietary cleanse, consisting of taking a lot of supplements and drinking teas to cleanse the kidneys and liver. The cleanse lasted a month. At the end of the month, the cyst had shrunk to 1.6cm but I cannot say for certain whether it went down on its own or because of the cleanse.

not sure how I missed this video but I loved it. Informative, I had no idea about the cysts. I have always had them and now I see the connection!
I have not seen you on in a while, I hope you are well. I am about to have it all removed…sad times, but my doctor believes this is the next step so, wish me luck. I also have a tilted uterus so it added to the need.
