I have been having them mostly all year and have never suffered this before hand. I have a monthly period for 23 yrs. Any ideas?
Is it normal to have severe ovary pain while having your period?
See a doctor. Self diagnosis can be a dangerous thing. You dont know for sure its ovary pain, you assume it is! Get it assessed professionally!
Reply:It is possible you have fibroid or a cyst to be certain please see a doctor. I had lots of pain in mine too. Turned out to be hormonal.
Lots of luck to you!
Reply:get it checked could be anything
Reply:No, and you may need to take another pap test and also tell them to check for the pain that is in your ovaries. Technically that is not normal and should be checked out as soon as you can. Please! Don't drag your feet on this, It maybe minor or major where they can correct the problem. Please! Go to the doctor as soon as possible! Let me know how it went at Beagirl40@Yahoo.com!
Good Luck and God Bless!
Reply:Any kind of pain that crops up after two decades is a signal that something is wrong. It could be Endometriosis, it could be an endometrioma on the ovary or another kind of cyst (including even a functional one), it could be scar tissue or any number of other pelvic concerns. Best bet is to talk to your Gyn about starting the diagnostic phase, up to and including ultrasound, CT scan and/or MRI; if they cannot confirm or definitively rule out a specific condition and the pain continues, you may want to consider laparoscopic exploratory surgery with a skilled Gyn surgeon. Once inside during the surgery, they can visualize any pathology and treat it surgically and/or take biopsies from suspected areas. Medical suppression may also be considered thereafter in certain instances, including continous oral contraceptives. It really depends on what is causing the pain. Good luck and feel better soon.
Reply:yes it is normal. Unfortunately the only cure would be to get on some form of birth control , whether you need it or not. I had severe cramps for years that were so debilitating, I had to stay home during those days curled up in a fetal position. I was 16, not sexually active, but my gyno told my mom that was the only thing that could be done, due to hormones being out of whack. Try getting on the pill or shot or ring. if that doesn't help it, you may have cyst or something majorly wrong. God Bless!!
Reply:You should get that checked out soon!
Reply:You need to make you a DOC appointment %26amp; get you some good meds.

When one ovary is removed, does the other over-compensate for it?
I just found out that I have a large cyst on my right ovary, so large that my entire ovary may have to be removed. Will my left ovary over-compensate since my right one will be missing?
When one ovary is removed, does the other over-compensate for it?
Not, over-compensate, but it will continue to do its job if it's functioning properly.
What kind of treatment has been suggested BEFORE surgery becomes your only option?
I had a cyst measuring 10cm on an ovary measuring 6cm, and went on Lupron to induce temporary menopause. Not fun, but avoiding the surgery was better in the long run.
Look for alternatives!
Reply:No not really as each ovary only has so many eggs in it so it will not be any different than before surgery.
Reply:Sweetheart you do not have to lose your ovary at all. I had the same problem and i went to a herbalist and he gave me herbs to melt it away. He can also give you herbs that can melt fibroids. Find a good Herbalist where you live and visit him or her. Drugs and surgery are so unecessary sometimes. Check out your alternative options first. You do not need to lose your ovary!!! Get this book..."Natural Cures They Don't Want You To Know About" by Kevin Trudeau. In this book Kevin tells how to never get sick again. In the back of the book there is a list of Holistic Health Care Practitoners who treats any disease without using drugs and surgery. You can get the books free though, both the first and second book "More Natural Cures Revealed" by visiting his website, in these books there are simple ways to cure almost any disease using natural methods, this book is a must have, you just pay shipping www.naturalcures.com. If you join the website you can actually talk to Licensed Doctors who do not use drugs and surgery to treat diseases. Don't let Doctors fool you and take your money.
Reply:No. It will continue to release one egg every other month. If at some point you try to get pregnant you can take special hormones that causing the eggs to be released more often.
Reply:Perhaps! two organs are made to perform this function Like wise one eye, one kidney, one leg......
Reply:no ,as each one works every other month=to be sure what will happen ,ask the surgeon =good luck
Reply:No, your left ovary will not adjust for the loss of your right ovary. Since your ovaries generally rotate turnes during ovulation (month 1- left, month 2-right, month 3-left), if you lose one, you will only ovulate every other month, even though your period will still come every month. Even though one part of your system may be removed, the other parts don't know it and therefore don't do anything about it. Make sense?

Is lower back pain and ovary pain serious?
I am 5 days late, having severe lower back pain and my ovaries are killing me. I've taken two hpt's and they both come back neg.
Is lower back pain and ovary pain serious?
Here is a good exercise to do when you are on bed rest. Lie on your stomach and prop yourself up by your elbows. Slowly and gently push up so that your hips remain on the floor and your stomach and chest are lifted up. Do this as far as you can without overextending yourself. After this, roll onto your back and insert a rolled up towel under your lower back.
If you perform this exercise for three or four days and find no relief it may be because your pain is not centered in your lower back. If you feel the pain more to one side than the other you can modify this exercise. The way you do this is to go ahead and lie down. Then shift your hips away from the side with the pain. Then go ahead with the exercise as described in the above.

Reply:Hello!
Im familiar with your situation, I’ve had back pain long ago.
Yet, I was able to say bye-bye to the pain, and now im living a healthy life (at least its back pain free :-).
Since then I’ve made my personal web page about my experiences and useful back pain treatments.
I don’t want to fill a lot of space here with my writings as there are many ways to relief the pain,
so I would recommend you to visit my site and read the detailed ebook I wrote.
And don’t worry, there is no any catch, you can read all pages online or even download it for free.
I hope you get better, and love to hear about you!
Take care!

What exactly is POLYCISTIC OVARY DISEASE?
What are the symptoms and what are the treatments? What meds do you take if you have it. Is is life threatening.
What exactly is POLYCISTIC OVARY DISEASE?
Basically, PCOS looks like a strand of pearls [many cysts] that ring the ovaries. It is rarely life threatening. It is often genetic. And men can get it, sometimes diagnosed in them as male menopause, etc. There are great books and info on-line about PCOS. Talk to your doctor about symptoms you have that may possibly indicate PCOS.
I have had it forty years, with no idea why I kept getting pregnant and miscarried 6 times. PCOS has many symptoms, but is rarely diagnosed until the woman gets testing due to infertility. Some symptoms include storing weight in the belly area, depression, "alligator skin" patches [my armpits and my daughter's neck look like small cobblestones sitting on the skin - I scrubbed that poor kid so much, I cringe to think of it]. Skin tags, male hair patterns [girls with mustache and / or beard may have PCOS], baldness or thinning hair in the top-front area. Sleep apnea. Adult acne [my skin can't decide if I'm 50 or 15] or excess oil in the "T" zone. A steady weight increase of 5 to 20 pounds, no matter how hard you diet or exercise. A family history of late life and/or unexpected pregnancy. There are more symptoms...
Good news: my daughter, now officially diagnosed, is simply taking a basic birth control pill. Each person is, of course, an individual and should be evaluated and treatment ordered by their personal medical provider...not everyone is going to respond to BC pills like my daughter did.
How she reacted to treatment: she has energy, she is always optimistic and happy again, she went from a very stretched and strained size 3X to a size 2 in just a matter of weeks. Her skin is clear again. Her sleep apnea has improved [I no longer spend most of my days trying to get enough naptime so I could wake her up several times during the night when she stopped breathing.
Good luck!

Don't be too worried - my sister has it and she is fine and has had no problems having kids either
Reply:This is many cysts on the ovary.. It can cause many menstrual problems,,,especially skipped periods. It can be a cause of infertility.
Hormones are frequently prescribed. No one knows what causes it.
Reply:It is when you form many cysts on your ovaries. I have polycystic kidney disease and my ovaries. I have had them now for over 15 years. eventually they will take over and my kidneys will shut down. or they will pop and kill me. but nothing I can do about it. no medical and no treatment available.
Reply:Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is a condition of the female reproductive tract.
Basically, tiny cysts emerge inside the ovaries, sometimes outside the ovary (on the surface), causing exorbitant amount of problems. The most common is problems with periods, such as amenorrhea (no periods) or dysmenorrhea (painful periods). Other symptoms include weight gain that is hard to lose, decreased appetite, nausea (especially in the morning), acne, excessive body hair (hirsituism), hypothyroidism, intolerance to cold or heat, headaches/migraines, abdominal cramps, irritable bowel syndrome -%26gt; Just some of the common ones.
These are all due to a decreased amount of estrogen and progesterone related to the cysts causing the ovaries to go into "sleep mode". This can be problematic for fertility, as many women with PCOS often are infertile.
But its often a chicken or the egg situation as infertility is directly linked to one's weight. So the more obese one is, the more infertile they become. And with PCOS, the little estrogen that the ovaries do make become attracted to the fat cells of the body.....causing weight gain and making it impossible (almost impossible) to lose. Its a vicious cycle.
So one of the main nursing interventions for women with PCOS is healthy diet and a regular exercise program. We want to take the ovaries out of "sleep" or hibernate mode and back into full functioning mode.
Some doctors give oral birth control to try and regulate one's period by chemically manipulating the ovarian hormone functioning of estrogen and progesterone. But this is risky, and not every women can tolerate birth control pills.
As I said, a lot of this is healthy lifestyle, diet %26amp; weight control, stress reduction, etc.
PCOS is not life-threatening condition. It can not kill you. But it can make you infertile, causing immense emotional scarring, even for women who never thought of themselves as mothers, to be put into a stage of early menopause is debilitating.
I hope that gives you some insight into PCOS.
Reply:Poly means many, i am sure you know what a cyst is so there are many cyst on the overies.There are many kinds of cyst.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome While trying to conceive. I just went for my annual exam and was talking to my docto
about getting pregnant and she went into the fact that I had a very irregular period and was the first doctor to tell me that I could possibly have something called pollycystic ovary syndrome. She didn't diagnose me but she did say it was a possibility and in that case would be a little more difficult for me to become pregnant. I'm only 22 and we weren't expecting a pregnancy with out first child but now that we actually are trying all these things are coming up that are starting to worry me. The doctor did say that loosing as little as 10 lbs could make a world of difference in trying to become pregnant if i did indeed have polycystic ovary syndrome but I'm still a little depressed because of the thought of it being a possibility I might have a hard time getting pregnant ever again. Has anyone ever dealt with this? Any good advice. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks to all in advance.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome While trying to conceive. I just went for my annual exam and was talking to my docto
I have PCOS. It is hard to conceive with PCOS, but not impossible. Before you get too worried about it, I would ask your dr to test you for PCOS. This would include bloodwork to see if your hormones are out of whack, and also an ultrasound to check for cysts on your ovaries. Some women have all of the symptoms, and some have only one. I found it best, to search the internet for any info I could find on PCOS. Some of the symptoms are - abnormal hair growth on your face, back or chest, acne especially on the jawline, weight gain, especially in your middle area, skin tags, depression, and fatigue. Hope this helps a little bit, but my best advice would be to get your dr to run the tests, just to ease your mind.
Reply:I was diagnosed with PCOS back in Dec. 2006 while trying to get pregnant. I will recommend you make an appointment with your Gyn or with an infertility specialist RE, they will be able to do tests to help determine if you have PCOS or not. Having PCOS could make it difficult to get pregnant but not impossible. Good luck to you.
Reply:I too have PCOS. And to be honest when I first found out that I would have a hard time getting pregnant I wanted to cry. But then I decided to see an infertity specialist who ran a bunch of exams on me and immediately put me on medication. My particular problem is that #1 my periods were/are very irregular and I am not ovulating. I have been on medication/ treatment for close to a year now. Sadly enough I am not pregnant YET but I have read so many great and positive stories of women of all ages who suffer from PCOS and have had positive results.........Just remember try to remain clam and I know that it is easiler said than done- Believe me I know! Another thing is that you will need a good support system because if you do not get pregnant immediatley you will need your "support system" to step up and help you through such a difficult time....
I wish you and your hubby the very best !!!
Good Luck and God Bless !!

What are the chances to get pregnant people who have scar on the ovary?
How did you get a scar on your ovary? I have endometriosis which causes scarring on my ovaries, tubes, uterus and other organs. Each women is different. My chances of conceiving a child naturally was less than 2%. We finally got pregnant by IVF which our chances were 50%. Good Luck!!!
What are the chances to get pregnant people who have scar on the ovary?
I had sever endometriosis when I was younger. After several surgeries to remove cysts, the doctors told me that my chances of becoming pregnant were very slim due to the scarring I had. However, just a short time after I got married, we were expecting our first child!
I believe the chances are different for each individual. So many factors (extent of scarring, level of natural fertility, age, etc.) affect fertility that it is difficult to say without knowing a full medical history.
No matter what, keep trying. We didn't give up and now I have two gorgeous children and have been a surrogate mother three times!
Good luck!
Reply:my mom had something wrong with one of her ovaries, possibly a scar, and she ended up having two more kids... so it's not impossible.
