I have a few questions, I have cysts on my left ovaries that are filled with blood I have been in pain for about 4 months now with them, is there any treatment for these? Also can you tell me if these cysts will make me gain rapid weight? I have gained like 20lbs since I have had these and I don t know what to do?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The treatment options of hemorrhagic cysts depends on the size, number and symptoms of cysts. Simple hemorrhagic cysts with small size can decrease by treatment with combined hormonal pills. Larger cysts with symptoms like severe pain or endometriotic cyst may need surgery.
Hormone secreting cysts or cysts affecting metabolic issues can sometimes lead to weight gain. So, your treatment options should be planned according to the size and nature of your cyst and symptoms. If you are having severe pain, large size cyst with metabolic issues you may need to for surgery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
