I'm sorry to hear that, it doesn't sound fun. Do you know what ages they affect? And how common they are? I honestly don't know anything about ovarian cysts. Or anything about ovary type stuff to be honest XD

I believe anyone of reproductive age and then I believe they go away with menopause. Some people have POS, which is polycystic ovarian syndrome and they have numerous cysts all the time. They’re very common.

The cysts can also twist and cut off blood supply to the ovaries, which is called torsion. The ovaries can also become cancerous. They’re pains in the butt. Lol! I would rather just have them removed since I’m done having children, but then you go into instant menopause.

Jeez, that sounds horrible! Sorry you have to deal with that. I apologize I don't really relate, but I hope it ends soon for you

So sorry to hear you're in the ER & going thru all this...ouch! Hope they get you all fixed up & quickly back to feeling good...
Tough choices too, "instant menopause" or keep getting this issue...bleah! Neither one is a great option.

It's fun being a female, isn't it?

Lol, I thought you were a male, bro XD

I swear, for some people it's easy to tell if they are male or female. Others it's just like "didn't even think they'd be a boy/girl"
