Is this pain and vomiting around the time of your menstural cycle ? Small cysts in the ovary can produce a mild to moderate discomfort. If the size of the ovarian cyst is > 5 cm it needs urgent attention. On a cautious note it would be better to visit the ER asap, as the cysts are prone to complications like rupture or bleeding into the cyst, and infection. All of these can produce vomiting and pain. The bloating sensation is NOt a very good sign, if it is assosciated with diarrhoea. It could also be due to certain pain killers u must be taking. SO PLEASE RUSH TO ER, a USG is a MUST straight away
