Cyst :(

I am Marla Singer · April 2011

I went in for my u/s this morning. I have a cyst. It isn't a CL cyst- but is on the opposite ovary that I ovulated from. It isn't huge- but unfortunately I am back on the waiting game plan.

I talked about not wanting Clomid again, and my RE agreed. He said we will go with Femara, although he is very careful about the potential for teratogenic effects if there is an undetected pregnancy, so I will get even MORE monitoring once I move on to that.

Then there was the inevitable talk about injectibles, HOM's, cancelling cycles, and converting to IVF etc...So I am feeling pretty miserable. I hope I don' t ever have to think about these things- but I realize I may get to that point soon.

Oh Marla, I'm sorry! My u/s this morning showed a cyst too (a CL one though).((Hugs))

I'm so sorry about the cyst. I've heard a lot of good things about Femara working when Clomid didn't. Good luck!

Sorry! Cysts are the absolute devil. I have named mine Larry, it is so strange to know that you have this thing in you that you shouldn't. Mine is an endometrioma though.

Hopefully yours goes away soon. You should try a castor oil pack!

ETA: I have also heard good things about femara working after clomid caused cysts. My fingers are crossed for you!

So sorry I hope you have better luck with the Femara.

I'm sorry - I'm switching to Femara too because of a cyst. The waiting game is not fun.

I'm sorry about the cyst - but I think your RE made the right move by switching you to Femara.

Sorry about the cyst. So is there a cyst fairy too? GL with the Femara!

Sorry about the cyst hun. I hope femara does it for you!

Thanks guys.

I guess I will leave Voodoo Tampon on a while longer- maybe she will help shorten the wait...

UGH.

Sorry about the cyst, like PP stated hopefully Femara will work better for you. GL!

I'm sorry to hear about your cysts. I had numerous cysts on clomid but on my first month of femara (which was last month) I had a follie but it wasn't mature. This month, I received my first mature follicle. I love femara & I haven't had any side effects, nor have I had a bfp but I hope it all works out for you.

Sorry to hear about your cyst. Hopefully your month off will pass by quickly. And GL with femara.

Sorry about the cyst... that reaaly sucks. Good luck with Ferma. I go may 2 to have my inevitable talk about injectibles, HOM's, cancelling cycles and converting to IVF.
