I was recently diagnosed w/ PCOS. I'm somewhat familiar with the disorder however, I didn't realize how much it effects the body. I had a CT scan yesterday which revealed a large cyst on one of my ovaries and the cyst had burst. I didn't know this could happen and so I'm wondering if any mom's have gone through this? What else is there I can do after the cyst bursts? I called my Endocrinologist and Gynocologists to review that report but for now, I'm just looking for mom's opinions who have gone through this.
Usually it the cyst bursts as you say, doctors call it breaking up. It is a good thing. A lot of cysts burst and desolve on their own. I wouldn't stress over it until I get my doctors report.
I was diagnosed w/PCOS two years ago, but I've never had a cyst burst. Sorry that I can't help you with that! However, there is a fabulous support website for women w/PCOS: http://www.soulcysters.net Best site out there for info on PCOS & other women's experience with it. I've gotten better answers there than from my doctors, sometimes! GL!
I have a severe case of PCOS and have never heard of a cyst bursting that was associated with it. As far as I know, PCOS consists of cysts inside the ovaries not on the outside. I would definitely recommend talking to your gynecologist about this because I don't know if they are necessarily related. Cysts on the outside of ovaries normally hormone related.
I used to get ovarian cysts when I was younger. I had experienced horribly pain in my abdomen and my OBGYN ordered a pelvic Ultrasound. I found out a year after my ultrasound that they had found a ruptured cyst and never told me - I won't go into the medical ethics there but in any event I had it happen twice and other than the fact that I had so much pain all I could do was lie in the fetal position nothing else really happened. I was put on orthotricyclen and that ended the episodes. I went off it to have kids and never went back on it and I am still OK after 5 years.
