I’m only 19 years old, and I’ve noticed a lump in by right breat. I’ve had it for about a month, my mom .. who’s a nurse told me to watch it and just wait, but it showed up before my period and i’m about to start again. It hurts really bad, like it burns sometimes. My family doesn’t have a history of breast cancer or anything and when my mom and aunt were younger they both got cysts, do you think thats what this is?

Myself and DH are not trying and not preventing either. My cycles are typically regular 28 day cycles. I’ve never been pregnant before. I am 26 years old.

About 7 or 8 months ago I had what I think was a cyst. It caused me to not have a period for two months. Around the time my missed period was due, I got a lot of PMS symptoms (cramping, some feet swelling) but they fizzled out and never developed into a period. I think the cyst ended up breaking, leading to sudden extremely heavy blood flow that lasted a very short time, then a few days later I got a period that lasted one and off for about 2 or 3 weeks. I had taken HPTs during this time that were all BFNs, so I don’t think I was pregnant then.

My LMP was Jan 26th, making my next AF due last tuesday. She still has not arrived. Since last saturday or so I have: (I starred the symptoms I did not have with the cyst)

experienced on and off light to moderate cramps
My breasts have been achy *
the last couple of days my feet have been a little swollen in the evenings
I keep making poor DH eat out because the food we have in the kitchen (even though I just grocery shopped) repulses me atm *
I’ve been pretty bitchy, I thought I was going to have an emotional nervous breakdown last sunday for basically no good reason at all…*
I normally spot a few days before AF, but there has been no sign of blood whatsoever
I’ve been getting a lot of migranes*
very thirsty, craving water *
felt like I had quite a lot of cm (watery to milky) *

We BD’d a lot during the time I would have been ovulating. I took a dollar HTP Monday afternoon (the day before my period was due). It was negative. I’m planning on testing tomorrow with FMU.

I really don’t think I am pregnant. I’m really afraid this is another cyst.

I’d love to hear opinions, though.

ok so last nov i started to notice it. it seems to get bigger sometimes and then smaller. sometimes it really hurts, sometimes it doesn’t. what is this??
how long can cysts last for?? because this has been here almost a year.
ps i showed my mom and she said she couldnt feel anything. but i know something is there. could it be normal to have a bump?
ps 17 yrs old

About a month ago my doctor told me that I have an ovarian cyst on my left ovary. I went to the dr after experiencing nauseua, vomiting, sore breasts, couldn’t eat etc for about 2 weeks. I did the ultrasound & she said that they couldn’t really do anything for it cause the normal treatment is BC pills & I already had IUD in place. She said if the pain gets worse to call & she would perscibe me some pain meds.

Well the pain & stuff went away for about a 2 weeks and then its started up again a few days ago. I’ve never had a cyst before, or at least one that caused symptoms. This is the time of the month that I am ovulating is this why the symptoms are coming back? Is this going to happen every month? Is a new cyst created every month & that is why I’m having pain around the time I’m ovulating? Lots of questions I know. Thanks for helping!

IT’S RIGHT UNDER MY BREAST AN IS THE SIZE OF A GOLF BALL WILL IT HURT MY BABY IF I HAVE THIS SURGERY ???
HE DONT KNOW I AM PREGNANT! HE SAY IT WILL ONLY TAKE ABOUT 15-20MIN FOR THE WHOLE THING.

I am pretty regular with my period, but last month period was 1 week late with severe pain and brownish discharge. In the ER, they scanned me and told me I had a left side cyst which would go away on its own. The pain was there for 3-4 days and went off. This month ‘am 2 weeks late for my period and feel a pressure-like mild pain in the left side once in a while. Other than having sore painful breasts, I do not have any other problem. Have anyone of you had ovarian cyst with missed period? I am TTC for at least 5 months nw and havnt conceived yet. Do I need to follow up with my doctor again or wait longer and see? Please opine…

I had sex about 3 weeks ago. It was my first time. I had my period a week afterward but it was lighter and lasted 3days instead of the usual 5. I’ve had a lot of pain and this kind of swollen feeling in my lower region since. I’ve had back pain as well. Some times my lower back sometimes my whole back. I went to the doctor for a check up and a pregnancy test and a blood test. The tests came back negative. The doctor suspects the problem to be ovarian cysts but now after I’ve gotten a negative test my breasts have started hurting. My breasts are fairly large so I thought maybe they were just getting heavier or something. It doesn’t hurt all the time though and sometime one breast hurts more than the other. Could I still be pregnant or am I just thinking about it so much its stressing me out or something like that? Help please!
