Suggest Treatment For Ovarian Cyst Causing Severe Abdominal Cramps
Hello, I have an ovarian cyst that doesn t seem to go away even when I do take birth control pills. Well now I have been off it for a good while because we are trying to have another child. Well the pain is worse everyday. I can t even workout because of the pain. I m in pain all the time and cramping all the time. I try telling my doctor that the pain doesn t go away and that this cyst is not going away. Right now I m in alot of pain and it really hurts to sit up or lay on my right side. It s worse when I m on my period which I am right now. So what should I do?

Hi,
It's essential to get a proper medical evaluation and diagnosis from your doctor to determine the best treatment for your ovarian cyst. Treatment options for ovarian cysts depend on various factors such as size, type, and symptoms but may include:
* Pain management: Over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen can help relieve cramps and pain.
* Hormonal therapy: If hormonal imbalances cause the cyst, your doctor may prescribe birth control pills to regulate your hormones and shrink the cyst.
* Surgery: If the cyst is large or causes severe symptoms, your doctor may recommend surgical removal.
It's important to follow your doctor's recommendations and regularly monitor the cyst to ensure it doesn't cause further complications.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
