Ovarian Cysts

Just trying to get an idea of what other mom's (mom-to-be's) are experiencing...

 

I recently went in for an Ultrasound and the doctor found a large cyst on my right ovary.  In the past 2-3 months, I have discontinued using BC and have noticed a pretty significant increase in pain as well as a missed period.  My husband and I are 'not trying' but 'not preventing.'  

 

I'm just curious... has anyone ever had something similar?  If so, did you find any difficulties in becoming pregnant?  Some insight would be great!

Thanks!

I am not pregnant yet but am ttc and have dealt with ovarian cysts since I was 15 When I was 16 I had one removed from my ovary that was the size of a cantoloupe! No exageration either the dr. insisted for a month that I was 4 months pregnant before they ordered the tests! Turns out it was big enough that it squashed my apendix so they removed that at least I won't have to worry about that down the road  But any how one of my main concerns was having trouble ttc but my ob/gyn expressed that cysts are a very common thing and they come and go all the time (I have felt them burst so not fun). So I woulnd't worry about it too much and good luck!
