Ladybug_girl asked:


I ended up going to the hospital and found out I have PID *pelvic inflammatory disease* and an ovarian cyst on my right ovary. What can I do to stop the pain from the cyst? They gave me percocet but I don’t want to take medicines all the time. Will it go away? It’s 2 cm I believe.

Can intercourse lead to an ovarian cyst?

star_pinkprincess asked:


The doctors found that I have an ovarian cyst, and I’m curious to find out if having intercourse can cause them? I started having intercourse with someone again after a long time of not, and all of a sudden I experience that problem.

I know it’s kind of a silly question, I’ve done some research on them, and nowhere does it say that intercourse has anything to do with it, but I’m still curious.

leespitt asked:


Can ovarian cysts make a woman have a false negative pregnancy test? I was told that it should not bother it, but I have all of the symptoms of pregnancy and the home pregnancy tests keep saying that I am not pregnant. How is that possible that I am having pregnancy symptoms.

How to get rid of ovarian cysts?

ovarian cysts
BIZ Z asked:


I just had an emergency D&C for hemorahing. I was told I had ovarian cysts as well as the usual thick uterine lining. They removed the cysts from my uterus, but how will the ones from my ovaries disolve. Also they put me on Micronor. I’m not thrilled at age 42 to be on birth control. Any risks?
Also, since my D&C was 3 days ago, is it normal to have worse cramps today and heavier spotting with some clots?
