Can There Be A Recurrence Of A Ovarian Haemorrhagic Cyst? How To Determine And Treat This?

A few times within the last year and a half I have had an ovarian cyst rupture. My doctor issued ultrasounds for me and determined that it was a hemmorragic cyst and would go away on it's own. Well, the other day I felt the exact pain of a rupture I had felt before well over a year ago and I can tell it's on my left side. I have felt a lot better today, but now I'm starting to feel lethargic, bloated, and a dull ache on my left side and off and on in my lower back. I'm trying to get an appointment with an actual gyno since my usual doctor is just general and will send me to one anyways. How can I be certain that this is not in fact the same cyst that was there before? It measured 6 cm before, but if it is the same and going to continue to give me problems, I want it out. What do you think?

Hello ma'am and welcome.

To confirm the presence of the cyst, along with clinical presentation an ultrasound should have been conducted. If this was conducted the first time, then those ultrasound reports can be compared with a more recent one and we could find out if this is the same one or a new one.

Please request your doctor for the same. Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
