A cyst may or may not be a benign tumor. You should see a doctor.

It isn't unusual for some women to ovulate more than once in a menstrual cycle.  You could be at risk of pregnancy, even though you had unprotected sex after your cycle.  If your period doesn't arrive when you expect it to, you'll need to take a pregnancy test to be sure. \n\nBreast pain is more likely to be caused by non-cancerous issues than it is to be caused by cancer.  Breast pain can be caused by hormonal fluctuations, benign (non-cancerous) breast conditions like fibrocystic breasts and increased breast growth.  \n\nWhile most painful breasts are not cancerous, and at age 21, your risk is very, very, very slim there is always a slight risk of cancer.  If you are concerned, the best thing to do is talk to your family doctor or nurse practitioner-they can do a clinical breast exam and feel for any lumps in your breasts that might be indicative of breast cancer.  They can also show you how to do a breast self-exam, if you haven't started doing them already.

You might have cysts again, or you might have a problem in your uterus or fallopian tubes. If you haven't already, go to the gynecologist. If you have, go to another one until someone can tell you what's wrong and why it hurts. There's probably something medically wrong and I think you should go get it checked out.

I am sorry to hear about your recent surgery, that can be a very tough one I am sure. I had a hysterectomy to remove everything including a grapefruit size cyst a number of years ago. I too was surprised at how long it took for the discomfort to go away, I have to agree with the other post expect a good year. Then it became numb and has stayed that way. Try and avoid wearing tight pants with anything that cuts across that area and that might help. However, if you see redness,swelling,any kind of excretion be sure and call your doctor right away. Remember when they do that kind of surgery they are cutting through a number of layers and you have stitches on the inside as well. If you are the least bit concerned or have any other questions,,I too agree that you need to contact your Doctor, July is not a great deal of time to heal from a major surgery as yours, take care of yourself, don't do what you aren't supposed to,easier said then done but it will help to avoid scar tissue.\nTake care of yourself Hon!\nMagnolia

To whom it may concern,\n\nIt could be oarian cyst or it could be that you are pregnant? If I were you, I would go to my doctor and have a pregnancy test done and ask for other tests to come along with it. So that way you can be safe knowing the answers instead of having to do it later in life.

i found a small hard lump in my breast it growed . it was cancer. it hurt sometimes and my breasts got sore.i was diagnosed april 2005...Lumps in a woman are often caused by fibrocystic changes, fibroadenomas, and cysts.\n\nFibrocystic changes can occur in either or both breasts. These changes occur in many women (especially during the reproductive years) and are considered a normal variation of breast tissue. Having fibrocystic breasts does not increase your risk for breast cancer. It does, however, make it more difficult to interpret lumps that you or your doctor find on exam. Many women feel tenderness in addition to the lumps and bumps associated with fibrocystic breasts.\n\nFibroadenomas are non-cancerous lumps that feel rubbery and are easily moveable within the breast tissue. Like fibrocystic changes, they occur most often during the reproductive years. Usually, they are not tender and, except in rare cases, do not become cancerous later. A doctor may feel fairly certain from an exam that a particular lump is a fibroadenoma. The only way to be sure, however, is to remove or biopsy them.\n\nCysts are fluid-filled sacs that often feel like soft grapes. These can sometimes be tender, especially just before your menstrual period. Cysts may be drained in the doctor's office. If the fluid removed is clear or greenish, and the lump disappears completely after it is drained, no further treatment is needed. If the fluid is bloody, it is sent to the lab to look for cancer cells. If the lump doesn't disappear, or recurs, it is usually removed surgically.\n\nOther causes of breast lumps include:\n\nMilk cysts (sacs filled with milk) and infections ( mastitis ), which may turn into an abscess. These typically occur if you are breastfeeding or have recently given birth. \nBreast cancer , detectable by mammogram or ultrasound, then a biopsy. Men can get breast cancer. \nInjury -- sometimes if your breast is badly bruised, there will be a collection of blood that feels like a lump. These tend to resolve on their own in a matter of days or weeks. If not, the blood may have to be drained by your doctor. \nLipoma -- a collection of fatty tissue. \nIntraductal papilloma -- a small growth inside a milk duct of the breast. Often occurs near the areola, the colored part of the breast surrounding the nipple, in women between the ages of 35 and 55. It is harmless and frequently cannot be felt. In some cases the only symptom is a watery, pink discharge from the nipple. Since a watery or bloody discharge can be seen in cases of breast cancer, this must be evaluated by your doctor. \ni dident have no discharge or bleeding from the nipple.. see your doctor...and request a mamogram and ultra sound.. i forgot the first gyn that checked mine said i dident need a mamogram said mine was a milk gland ....a year later i went and had another gyn check it out ..

If you are truly concerned, consider getting a second opinion from a doctor of your own choosing, NOT one that's been recommended by the doc that gave you the first reading.  That way you know there are no conflicting interests.\n\nSometimes a lump is just a lump.  Breasts get lumpy during certain times of the month, and goes along with normal cycles.  Calcifications and shadowing are pretty routine findings as well.  If there was something to be concerned about, the first doc would have ordered a biopsy on the lump.  A biopsy is where a needle is inserted into the lump and a sample is taken to be studied, to determine whether it is cancerous.

I have had two beautiful sons, and have had a chronic cyst on my right ovary as well, for a long time.  They can get larger, then rupture, then be smaller for a while and then get larger again.  The DR will likely just keep an eye on it during your pregnancy to make sure it isn't hindering anything, but other than that there shouldn't be any problems from it.  Other than the fact, as you already know of course, they are not particularly comfortable.  GL!

Could be a cyst, they usually resolve themselves but sometimes you have to have surgery to remove them. If they rupture believe me you'll know, this hurts really bad.If I was you, I would insist that the doctor run more tests (ultrasound). Keep on him until you feel satisfied, if he doesn't want to help you find a new doctor. You should not be in pain all the time.

I think you should tell your parents and consult a doctor. This is not to scare you but rather just to be on the safe side. :)\n\nYou are 13 years old and a lot of hormonal changes happen at that age. But if those bumps are bothering you, it would be much better to have it checked. Breast cancer can affect many women, even in their teens. But sometimes, some bumps and lumps are not cancerous but still have to be chekced by a doctor in order to know. And since you have such a strong family history of cancer, I suggest you have them checked out. It would be better to be safe.\n\nWell, I hope everything turns out fine for you. Take care and try not to stress about it too much. :)

It's not unusual to have changes in your menstrual cycle that are unique to your body and experoience, so it is probably idiopathic and benign.  Keep your appointment with the doctor though because it there is a problem behind it, it can be VERY serious.\n\nI hope you feel better soon.

I get cysts there all the time. a cyst is like a huge zit where junk builds up..if you mess with it and it gets much bigger..its a cyst

Given that your breasts are growing right now, the pain you're feeling is probably perfectly normal.   I'm glad your mom set up an appointment, though.  I think it's always better to be safe than sorry.\n\nThe chances of you having breast cancer at your age are very, very, very slim.  So slim that, if you were my daughter, I wouldn't be worried about it one bit.\n\nI hope that helps and "Happy Birthday".

That could happen up to a week before your about to get your period. . is it coming soon? Mine just recently started to hurt about a week before i start and I'm 19. It never happened before so it's possible this could be the reason....\nIt's also possible they are growing?!?!?!

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!

Cyst can be caused by many things. Talk w/ your doctor(OB/GYN) and ask them what they recommend.  There are medications you can take to help prevent them or even help them to shrink.  Are you having a lot of pain?  If so, warm compresses and bed rest are the best when I get them.  No lifting either.  The link below should help you out in more detail for your question.  Good luck and I hope you feel better.

Sometimes, lumps in breasts can be innocent. Like a fatty deposit. Some woman naturally have lumpy breasts. If the x-rays came back ok , and your dr. is not concerned, i wouldn't worry about it. But you can always get a second opinion, to give you piece of mind.
