Trouble TTC

Cysts?

Good morning. Ugh, I feel frustrated abd defeated.

I went in for baseline u/s for IUI #2 and have 7 cysts, the largest measuring 34.
Needless to say, we're not proceeding with meds this cycle.
The nurse said to call at next cd1 unless my cycle goes longer than 35 days, since I'm typically fairly regular.
So, the cysts just go away? I know it's normal to have cysts, corpus luteum, blah blah, blah.
I guess I'm just wondering if I'll O as usualthis month? Any experiences?

Re: Cysts?

  • I don't know about the cysts (I think they do just go away) but wanted to give you (((hugs))) because I know that sucks to have to cancel the cycle. :(

    Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

    July 2006: started TTC
    2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
    2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
    October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
    Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
    January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
    February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
    March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary

    July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
    August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

    IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
    IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
    IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
    IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
    IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN

    May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
    IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis

    May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
    June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
    IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
    September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
    October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
    November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5

    November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
    December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
    December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)

    IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

    We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(

  • I'm sorry I know cyst suck!

    I've had cyst in the past that have screwed up my cycle but I'm not sure what kind they were it was almost 20 yrs ago. My last medicated cycle I ended up with 2 cyst that were 30 and 22 I think. My dr had me take bc for two weeks and when I went back for an us my cyst were gone so I started another medicated cycle.

    They gave me the option this time for bc or let them go away on their own. My dr told me the bc can make them go away quicker but he said I could just wait it out and come in on cd1 since I'm pretty regular too. From my understand he didn't think it would cause my cycle to be longer.

    Fucking bump!!!!
  • I'm so sorry! Mine (2) took longer than a cycle to resolve, but they were also about twice as big. I hope yours resolve right away.

    When I had my cysts, I did O like normal (according to temps) but I have heard that they can produce estrogen and act like birth control. I don't know if that is common or not.

    Good luck, I hope all is clear your next CD1!!

  • I'm so sorry, I know how awful that can be.  I can't speak for the O'ing because I have PCOS so I haven't O'd on my own until recently.  However, mine did go away, it took about 6 weeks, but were almost double yours.  That might be why mine took so long, hopefully yours go away much quicker.  Hopefully even though you have so many it wont take long for them to shrink because some are smaller.  I remember how uncomfortable they can be so take it easy and don't over do it!
    Ba hahahaha!

  • Last cycle I found out on CD3 that I had a cyst, so my RE wouldn't do any medication. They told me to wait for my next cycle to start and then to come back for an ultrasound. When I went in this cycle, the cyst was completely gone and we were able to proceed with a medicated cycle. I'm sorry you have a cyst - I know very well how disappointing and frustrating it is to find that out. I hope yours goes away quickly.
    Me: 34 - PCOS | DH: 30 - everything looks good!

  • Thanks for the hugs, ladies.

    I was wondering why bc want offered as an option because I see many of you mention it,but I'm glad to hear that bc wasn't always given. I was going to be hesitant to take it because I tend to get horrible headaches on it.
