Can having a large painful cyst on your ovary contribute to weight gain?

Ok dont listen to teh person talking about cancer.The only reason you should worry about cancer is if the cyst is abnormal! Im having problems with a cyst now.Most are functional cyst.Infact i just went into my GYN this morning and have tons of info on them.


1.Functional Cyst : Most common type of ovarian cyst.Developes from tissue that changes in the normal cycle of ovualtion.There are two types of functional cyst.Both usually have no symptoms or minor ones when they occur..Usually disapear 6-8 weeks.


2.Dermoid Cyst : Made up from different kinds of tissue from other parts of the body.Such as skin,hair,fat and teeth.Are small and may not cause signs unless they become large.


3 : Cystadenomas Cysts that develope from cells on the outer surface of the ovary.They are usually benign but can grow very large and cause pain.


4 : Endometriomas : Are cysts that form when endometrail tissue grows on the ovaries.Are filled with blood and "bleeds" monthly.Also known as a chocolate cyst.


A cyst can effect horomones and can cause weight gain.Also if you think about it with the pain you dont usually excerize as often or at all.If you want anymore info at all just email me znmcookz@yahoo.com . Hope this helped some

It could be cancer.





All women will get fat sooner of later, they just love to have somethign to blame on.
Reply:Well, not exactly. The fact that you have a cyst could mean that you have ovarian cystic syndrome, which can cause weight gain. When you have OCS, your hormones are not at the levels they are supposed to be, this can cause weight gain. You need to make an appointment with a gyno and have them test your hormone levels in your blood. This can be fixed rather simply by birth control if you do indeed have OCS. It is important that you do this ASAP because leaving OCS untreated can lead to infertility.
