Sorry, I have no experience or knowledge of anything like this so can't really say much to help I'm sure but didn't want to read and run. I think if anything's worrying you and I'm sure it is, then you should maybe ask the doc or mw for some more information. 2 weeks is a long time when you have no real understanding of what's going on. Don't be afraid to pester or harass them ever x

new to this so not sure where to start just wondered if anyone can help me im 27 week pregnant and my first child and my baby has one main cyst on its adrenal gland and 3 or 4 more growing in size got to go back again in two week but just wondered if anyone else has had this and what will they do when the baby is born hope someone can help thanks alot sarah x

I think its more common than you think. A couple of ladies that I work with have also been through similar situations. I hope you get the support you need from the drs. I know what you mean it can make u feel alone like yr the only one thats going through it. I had a couple of "womens problems" a few yrs back and I felt very alienated, and imo yr other half isnt always the best person to talk to! it helps to talk about it with people who have been through it. All the best of luck hun, let us know how u get onxxxxx

Hi,  thanks again. Sally- in that case I hope never to speak to you again lol but wish you  lots of good luck when your time comes!! x

Deeja- Thanks aswell for sharing. As silly and simple as it seems, sometimes a success story just helps. The link's good too, seems I was looking in the wrong place. When I wasn't inundatetd with answers here it backs up the abnormal feeling but there's loadsa ladies over there. You helped enormously!! x

Thank you both x

http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/1366/508175 have a look at this link, theres a few people on here that have been thru a similar situationxxx

Sorry to hear about your loss and all you have been through.  My friend has been thru a similar situation.  A few yrs ago she was having painful periods and was hurting during sex so she went to see her gp and had a scan, the results showed a cyst on her left ovary and dr didnt know if he would be able to save it, but she went ahead with the op (open surgery very similar to a caessarean) and luckily the ovary was saved, only a couple of mths after she became pregnant.  Some years later they were ttc again and having had no success over the next 2yrs and her again having pain, she went back to her gp who basically tried to fob her off, but she demanded a scan and it showed up that she had another cyst on her right ovary and a fybroid in her womb.  She went on to have keyhole surgery which was so much better than the previous op and they removed the cyst but this time lost the right ovary. The surgeon decided not to remove the fybroid but just to file it down instead.  Only wks after the op (about 6wks which dr recommended) they started ttc and she became pg straight away, their baby is now due in February next yr.  HTHxxxxx

Glad to know my story has be able to offer you some hope. Just reread through my last post and realised dates were all wrong. This is the way it went:

Fell pregnant early December 2004

Discovered it was ectopic and tube removed two days before Christmas 2004

Fell pregnant again again May 2005

Dylan was born end of January 2006

He is now 2 and half years old

Christmas and Dylans birthday are now very special to us as so many things changed in that 14 months from Dec 2004 to Jan 2006.

Many things can happen in a year.

Keep in touch if you want to but (this is meant in the best possible way) I hope not to see you still hanging round here when I return for some time in the new year. 

Thanks Sally. I know they're not exactly the same but thanks, think it just helps to know I'm not the only one. Doesn't matter that the docs tell you lots of women have these things, it doesn't help at all, the abnormal feeling's still there. The docs have said it's still ok to ttc but I was worried as these things can apparently grow rapidly during pregnancy. My head's just all over the place, I suddenly have even less control over my body. I'm really sorry for your loss and can't imagine how difficult it would have been to then lose your tube, I'm only faced with the chance of and I'm a mess. Not to sound lame but so glad that having faced all that you came out strong and now have your wee boy, there's hope yet. I hope your ttc isn't affected, think you should pester your doctor for a while to make sure- just so you're not worrying about it all at the time as mine told me the stress of a 2 year old son is tolling enough on our bodies!! x

Don't know if I can be of very much help but did not want to read and run. I have been through a similar situation. Although I have a fibroid not a cyst. In December 2005 I suffered an ectopic pregnancy and lost my right tube. In 2006 I fell pregnant with my now 2 and half year old son. During scans for the pregnancy the fibroid was discovered and monitored as obviously nothing could be done while I was still pregnant. Following an emergency c. section birth still doctors did not see any problems and have left me with the fibroid. Although this was 2 years ago and I am not ttc just yet (plan to start in the new year) I still feel confussed and upset that I have been left with this "abnormal growth" and have no idea whether it may affect our plans to have another baby in the future.

Just wanted to let you know you are not alone.

Thinking of you

Sally

Hi, pretty new here but really needing some advice. I had a mmc few weeks bk was 11+1, baby was 8+3. Found out on 8/8 then (after pill) lost baby on 14/8. It's been totally devastating but I thought I was doing ok, actually thought I must seem a bit cold for just getting on with things so quickly but already have ds and just had to get on with things for his sake. However had a return visit to hospital yesterday as something showed up when I was scanned to make sure all the tissue had passed- left ovary very inflamed and a cyst. Was re- scanned yesterday and half expected it to have gone (doctor said it may do that) but was told it looks like a dermoid cyst but will need an MRI to confirm. I'm gutted. They said this won't have been causing the problems I'd been having- sudden irregular periods, taking time to fall then mc. So for this reason if it doesn't cause me pain or doesn't grow, it'll just be left as removing it means removing my ovary apparently. I've just been crying since, I'm so down, don't know if it's just the grief catching up with me but just feel like I'm right back to square one. I've obviously now read lots of info and it's all conflicting, all pretty scary. Just wondering if anyone's been/ going through the same? Think I just really needed to get it all off my chest sorry. x
