I Have An Ovarian Cyst About 5cm. How To Get Rid Of It Without Surgery ?
I have an ovarian cyst. I m a 24 year old, still virgin. I tried every medicine possible n haven t got any good results. I tried Lutenyl, Duphaston, n birth control pills. I don t want surgery , although my Dr. recommended it the last time i saw him. My cyst got larger despite the treatment; its now about 5 cm in diameter and I m getting married in few months. I m so afraid. How to get rid of it ?

Hello,
Uusllay oc pills for 3-6 cycles work very well for cyst.But if the cyst is larger than 5 cm then it might need surgical removal.It can be done laproscopically and the recovery time is very short.If you are getting married soon then there is no time to medical treatment.Surgical removal will be advised.

hi;
ovarian cyst less than 4-6cm resolve on taking treatment ;but since you did not benefit from it & size of cyst has also increased you will have to get surgical treatment.
Nowadays laparoscopic removal is possible which is less invasive & requires hospitalisation for lesser period.Make up your mind ;take a second opinion if required;if the other doctor also advises surgery then go ahead because if you wait for long time things may complicate .
thanks
