A continually growing cyst in a woman who has been on oral contraceptives for at least several months should be investigated to rule out tumor. Because women on oral contraceptives should not ovulate, they should not develop functional cysts, therefore we’re going to be looking at other types of cysts - the endometriomas, the cystadenomas, the dermoid cysts, occasionally polycystic ovaries, and rarely the cancerous cysts.
Another thing, intrauterine devices, so things like Marina by Berlex, the old Copper Sevens, various intrauterine devices which are pieces of plastic, plastic and metal, plastic and metal secreting hormone, put into the uterus which through a complex mechanism causes no - basically causes no conception. And these are not - and I repeat are not associated with any increase in cysts, any increase in tumors. There absolutely is - it’s a non-event. Some women have a problem with intrauterine devices causing pain, and I don0t doubt that.
I’ve had to remove many of them, because the uterus contracts and it can cause pain. It doesn0t have to be right in the middle, can cause a right side, left side, but it is not causing a pathologic problem, something that’s going to develop into something. I’ve […]

What are the complications of the cyst? Well, first and foremost if any cyst, any of these types of cysts we talked about; the benign ones can cause a problem if they get so large that they start twisting, called torsion. And, when an ovary generally gets bigger than 10 centimeters that can be a problem. New York OB/GYN Christopher Freville reports to have seen it less than that, but when the ovary starts twisting itself just imagine a tube with a big ball on the end and by movement or whatever this tube gets twisted and twisted. You ultimately end up shutting down the blood supply and causing that particular ovary tube, called the addnexit to loose it0s blood supply, become necrotic, which means tissue dies, and it has to be removed. Well, prior to that process it0s extremely painful. Most of the time those torsed ovaries cannot be saved. Which is not a problem because just like kidneys, just like testis, women with one ovary can have just as many babies as a woman with two ovaries and two tubes. So it doesn0t decrease the fertility by half which is a common misconception.
So we0ve got torsion as a […]

One woman described how she’d had two miscarriages already. The first one was at 21 weeks, the second was at eight weeks. And she found out during her second pregnancy that she had a dermoid cyst on her right ovary. And she writes in that we consulted a doctor that said it wasn0t the cause of my miscarriage, and can I still try getting pregnant? It was almost a year passed since I had my second miscarriage, and I’m trying to get pregnant, but what I just observed with myself now is I can’t get pregnant as easily now like before, any advice?
First of all, the first advice is she had two miscarriages, miscarriages are extremely common. Twenty percent of all pregnancies miscarry before 12 weeks, it’s nature’s way of ridding vaginetic products. The miscarriage at 21 weeks was rather unusual. I’m assuming that this was something that was looked into, and probably was not a cause of anything that would repeat itself. The dermoid cyst on her right ovary, well if she knows she had a dermoid cyst on the right ovary, that must have been removed.
We were probably given part of the information because no doctor’s going to […]
