pcos question

how do you know when a cyst is bursting?

 i feel full on pmsy today, and have been cramping for the past few days, but i am wary to get my hopes up to think i am actually getting my period.

 i had read somehwere else that people can feel cysts bursting, was just curious if this sensation i am having now could be that.

Re: pcos question

  • I have had one burst and it was extremely painful, not like AF cramps at all. It was more stinging and on one side.

     i def feel crampy and towards my ovaries, but not a pain like you described. it's so frustrated to feel crappy like this and just not get your period.

  • I don't really have an answer but I have gotten the take my breath away pains and I have often wondered if that was a cyst bursting. Usually my cramping has been before a period.

  • You can definitely feel them when they burst it is really painful.  But sometimes when they are smaller it just feeling like cramping so it could be that as well.

     Feel better!!

  • Two words......SCREAMING PAIN!!!!!
  • pcos cysts don't normally burst because they are too small and too many of them. Anyone can have a cyst (large kind that do burst) while some pcos ladies have a large qty of cysts (20-30) that look like a string of pearls on u/s.
