7.5cm Hemorrhagic Cyst, when is it okay to start boating/exercising?From: Jill (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 2 Jul 2001 10:43:49 -0500 (CDT)
Hello, Two weeks ago, I went to the ER with ACUTE pelvic pain on my right side (this is the second time--the other time was in March, but the pain wasn't this bad), I was diagnosed with a 7.5 cm right hemorrhagic ovairian cyst with no traces of blood in the pelvic area (which I think is good?!) . I had an ultrasound and vaginal ultrasound that revealed this cyst. The tests were sent to an OB/GYN who reviewed my blood work, etc, and she confirmed the diagnosis. I went to the OB/GYN that had reviewed my test while I was in the ER, about five days later. She said that I had a classic hemorrhagic cyst--and she wanted me to start the pill as soon as I got my period, and then to come back a month after that for another Ultrasound. She said that in most cases, these dissolve on their own. She said to wait two weeks from my visit to the ER, before exercising, boating, sex, etc. My questions are; is two weeks enough time for a cyst this big? What happens in that two weeks that makes it okay to start exercising? I still get twinges of pain sometimes, only for a second, and then they subside. Is this normal? Should I call my OB/GYM and suggest another ultrasound before I start doing stuff? I do feel a lot better--but I am still concerned. I am worried that something will happen if I start being active again, I have been taking it very, very slow for the past two weeks. Thank you very much. I apologize for the long e-mail. I am just worried.
