my pap smear is perfect and during my ultrasound and transvaginal my ovary and uterus are perfect but in my left ovary they found that i have cyst. I decided to make a schedule which is laparoscopy operation. In God's help just remove my stitches yesterday, but i still have a problem and they called it minor endometriosis, is it a big problem? i still have chances having a baby? my minor endometriosis found after my laparoscopic operation. I feel shy to say i dont have experienced sex before after i get married thats the time i surrender my world to my husband. i never use any man-made-handed materials. My Question is: How the endometriosis will appear to the uterus of the woman? Am so happy that my cyst is remove without doctors we are not diagnosed.

Pregnancy absolutely does NOT "cure" Endometriosis, as stated by someone else. Nor does pregnancy or hysterectomy, two other popular "old wives tales" still being propogated by those who are uninformed about the true nature of this disease. There is no definitive cure, but you can live well in spite of the disease and certainly, most women with Endo who want a child, can have a child, even if it means getting the help of a reproductive endcrinologist and going through IVF protocols if necessary.\n\nSexual intercourse in patients with Endometriosis of the rectovaginal septum can be very painful.  You may find that if it was not effectively removed during your surgery, symptoms such as dyspareunia and other signs of Endo may still persist.\n\nUnfortunately, more often than not, even well-meaning surgeons do not recognize the disease in all manifestations and/or leave implants behind because they do not feel confident in treating them (for example, on the bowel). The other point to consider is whether the disease was treated through ablation or other superficial surgical means (fulguration, coagulation, vaporization, etc.). Studies show if not completely and thoroughly excised (very different from ablation, etc.), symptoms will recur rapidly because the disease was only superficially treated. \n\nBest bet if you start having pain or problems again, including infertility, is to seek out a qualified surgeon who treats Endo through surgical excision. Feel better and remember you're not alone!

To remove a cyst it's always outpatient unless there are complications. Recently they have had great success with using laperoscopy to remove them. It is when they make two very small incisions and insert a laserguided scalple and camera to preform the surgery instead of having to make a huge incision and open you up. If you have a choice do it this way! \n\nIt is common to have alot of pain when you have an ovarian cyst. I personally did not but I was told I was an odd case. If you don't have the surgery you run the risk of the cyst rupturing and dying of internal bleeding so it is a good idea to have it removed when they get that big. Even if they don't cause pain. Make sure that when you consent to the surgery that you do not sign anything that gives them the right to take out your whole ovary if they think it's necessary. People have different opinions on what makes it necessary, your doctor is not always going to do what you would have wanted. Make sure you give yourself the choice.\n\nIt's a simple proceedure, complication is unlikely and you should be fine when it's over. Good luck and be well. :)

i am 14 weeks post surgery. i had a lapriscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy. i feel great. i didnt have any problems after the surgery. i still have my moments of mild pain but thats supposed to be normal. i behaved myself completely during my recovery. i had 1 rule to live by.... "when it comes to hysterectomies you have only 1 chance to heal correctly the first time". i didnt want to take any chances on extending the healing time. i wish i had been able to have mine earlier. it took me 10 years and a move to a different state to find a doctor willing to help me. my life is so much better now!!!! the pleasure of no more daily pain or periods is worth all the pain of the surgery!

I mean, if you are experiencing any kind of pain, you should get it checked out. But I've had one rupture before and the doctor was like this is good, it's gone so don't sweat it. It's when they remain that you have a problem, because they then have to be surgically removed! Any invasive procedure (surgery) on your ovaries is not good, if you wanna have babies!

I have a few ideas.\n\nTo narrow it down...if the pain is in the middle of the pelvis, it is usually from your uterus.  If it is on one side, or both, it is usually from the fallopian tuves or ovaries.  Since you mentioned left side pain, I am guessing it's the latter.\n\nIf it is during deep thrusting it could be endometriosis, a tilted uterus,  or adhesions or fibroids.\n\nAlso, try to avoid using douche, scented pantyliners, pads, or tampons,  perfumed bath salts or bubbles, or not cotton panties.  This can rule out an allergy that you are transferring the allergen inside.    I am guessing this is not the problem, again, from the left side pain.  Just want to be thorough.\n\nThe one side pain could mean ovarian cysts if it feels real deep in your body.  Deep thrusting can hurt an ovary if the ovary isn't quite in the right place.  A cyst can last a few months then burst and go away.  Since you've had this for a while they aren't likely to go away on their own.  When they get big they can cause pressure on the bowels or  bladder.  A large cyst should be felt during an internal pelvic exam then they follow up with ultrasound to be sure.  \n\nEndometriosis can reduce fertility.  It can cause pain during sex and painful periods.  You have to have a laproscopy to diagnose this completely.  Being on the pill can regulate hormones and help this.  I have a friend who got pregnant 3 months after having surgery for this.  She had tried for years!\n\nA tipped uterus is a cause of infertility too.  The symptoms are usually pain during sex and during your period.  Sometimes you have trouble using tampons and some urine leakage.  Your doctor should of found this during a pelvic exam.\n\nWell, I tried to tell you the basics of everything i can think of.  If one sounds likely, you might try to research it more on the net.  I may of missed some details since I just know of the general problems with this.\n\nI know that some mental problems with sex can cause painful intercourse, but that wouldn't explain the certain pair of jeans that hurt.  But the mind always surprises me when I see what a little bit of resentment or bottled up anger will do.  \n\nIf I had to guess....endometriosis.\n\nGood luck!

Fibroids and ovarian cysts can make it more difficult to become pregnant, and can cause miscarraige  If there was a prenancy at the time of the ultra sound ,it would have been seen. I presume you have an app't with your OB soon to discuss these results.  He/she is your best soucre of information since every case is different.  I have listed 2 web addresses below for good articles to read.   Wish you well.

Your question tells me that you know very little about how your own body works.  Maybe I can help with that.  Your ovaries alternate ovum production.  One month it's the right ovary, the next month it's the left one.  The menstrual flow is no indicator of whether or not you can conceive.  I have no idea why your flows changes from one period to the next.  It just happens that way.  And I have no idea if you can conceive a baby, healthy or otherwise. \n\nYou also ask "Is something wrong with 1 ovary?"  Why would you think that???  If you are so concerned about this, and frankly I have read nothing so far that should cause concern, then you should see a fertility specialist but I think you'd do better to see your gynecologist and direct these questions to her/him.

It sounds like middleschmirtz. You can look it up on the web (yea, that is really the name). It is painful ovulation. Starts about two weeks or so after your last period began. It can cause mild to severe cramping feeling and lower back pain. (You would think we suffer enoung with the rest of the whole female cycle! Geesh!)\n\nLook in to it. That may be what is going on. \nAnother that I can think of is ovarian cysts. That can cause quite a bit of pain and discomfort too.\n\nEither way, if it continues, probably would be a good idea to see your OBGYN

can you tell me your age, and has this happend before ? Do you have moderate - severe pain in the lower pelvic region? Are you sleepy alot of the time ? The reason I ask this is because some of the symptoms i asked you is related to endometriosis , which i to suffer. Abnormal period's lasting more than 7=10 days and coming back immediatley after is the first symptom , this is also more than not a heridetary condition . There is treatment available and most used is birth control pill's. Hope things work out , if you have any other questions id be happy to help

I would definitely see a gynocologist, you could have an underlying problem that should be addressed.  I wish you well.

I have polycystic ovary syndrome, and part of that is that I have lots of little cysts on my ovaries.  The most common potentially dangerous thing that I have heard of happening with cysts is that they can burst (depending on what kind of ovarian cyst that you have).  I had this happen once.  It was extremely painful and I felt nauseous, but after a few hours I was completely fine.  Ruptured cysts almost always heal on their own, but they're painful and have a small chance of infection.  I know you want to have a child, but sometimes birth control pills help with cyst problems (also depends on what kind of cysts you have).  If you can't get your surgery scheduled any sooner, perhaps you should ask about going on the pill just until something else can be done for them.  Besides, you don't want to get pregnant just before having surgery "down there"...odds are they wouldn't do the surgery if you were pregnant.

I am not a doctor, but a pretty studied nurse - just from the latin of the actual anitibody test I would guess Endometriosis.  Do you have Gynecoglical problems. Let me know please if I am close

I had always had irregular periods and occasionally would have painful "cramps" where my ovaries are.I found out later this is the cyst bursting.  I also had a few stray hairs here and there. And i steadily gained weight, not a lot, just 5-10 lbs a year regardless if diet and exercize. I didn't put them all together until I tried to get pregnant and couldn't. After my doctor ran some tests to make sure it wasn't a thyroid issue or something like that she started treating me for PCOS and I was pregnant within 6months. At first my doctor perscribed me some medications similar to thoes used for diabeties, but I have managed my symptomes with a low carb diet (The Carbohydrate Addicts Diet) and exercize.  My sister in laws was much more severe than mine and she wound up having a hysterectomy, but she wasn't diagnosed until it had done some serious damage.  Soulcysters.com is a great resource. Definately find a doctor that will give it the attention it diserves! Good Luck!

While it can be normal, it can also be signs of things like early pregnancy, so my advice would be go to your gynecologist as soon as possible to have problems ruled out, especially if you're sexually active.

I'm sorry to read you have such serious gyn problems at your young age.  The best people to talk this over with are the professionals,and they are really the only people who can advise you well.  I can tell you the information they have given you is true, as unpleasant as it is.  I would suggest you consider seeking a second opinion, and discuss all your concerns and treatment options with a GYN physician, preferably one who specializes in treating PID and endometriosis.  It may be there are some other options for you to consider, or it may be that a hysterectomy is your best option.  If you do have one, it doesn't necessarily mean the end of the world, only that you will not have children.  But having children is already quite possibly not in your future anyway, so there is no point to suffering needlessly.  If and when you find the person you want to spend your life with, you can and should consider adoption to create your family.  In spite of what you might think, some children grow in your heart and some under it, but in the end you love both equally the same.  I urge you to speak with your doctor honestly, the way you did here, and then make your decisions.  Good luck, however things turn out.

First off,since you already had it diagnosed prior to renewing your insurance it may be considered a pre exsisting condition and may still not be covered by insurance.  You will need to check this out.\nSecondly,the stool is probably coincidental  and only related to something you ate.\nThirdly,ovarian cysts are painful and because it is attached to your ovary which probably just got through ovulating prior to your period this is making it feel more painful.\nBeing in your period and the hormones that are racing through your body at this time could possibly make it more painful.\nOvarian cysts can swell during this time but can reduce in size after your period is over and thusly may quit being so painful.\nOvarian cysts for the most part are benign though bothersome.\nThey can rupture on thier own as did mine and when they do,that will be painful as well but the pain does not last but for a short time.\nYes I suppose there could be the chance of infection though I think the incidence is small.\nThe ovarian cyst is usually just full of yellowish fluid that would be absorbed by the body should they burst.\nThey could operate on you while you are on your period but I don't think surgery is really indicated at this time.\nI would think that a Dr would give you some medicine that might help to reduce the cyst and possibly pain meds and or antibiotics.\nUnless you are running fever I wouldn't be too concerned about the cyst at this time except for the pain.\nShould you have fever,there could be the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy or pregnancy in the tube.  I hope that you have received a proper diagnosis and at this point I think a second opinion might be called for.\nYou could still have a regular period if you had an ectopic pregnancy since the uterus is not harboring the fetus.\nEctopic pregnancies can be dangerous to the woman and because of this and because of the amount of pain you are complaining about I think it would be most important at this point to have this ruled out.
