PCOS and ovarian cyst
Hi, I was wondering if anyone here has had both?
I was diagnosised with PCOS while doing fertility treatment about 10 yrs ago. Treatment didn't work. Since then started Atkins, lost 35 pounds and got pregnant, and pregnant, and pregnant a last time (I now have a 3, 2, and 1 yr old!). My question is I haven't been bothered much with the PCOS except fertility problems and hair growth. This last weekend I started having pain and over the last 3 days have seen my primary Dr, had a pelvic US, and seen my OB-GYN. I have a baseball sized cyst he says isn't related to PCOS. Our course of action will be to wait a month, repeat US, and if same size will have surgery to remove it, hopefully laperscopic, but due to size the chance of c-section like incision is pretty high.... Ugh!
Anyone know, experienced, a cyst like this?? Do you think it will shrink in a month? Burst before that? Thanks, Carol
