ovarian cyst after abdominal hysterectomy

I HAD A ABDOMINAL HYSTERRECTOMY 6 YEARS AGO BECAUSE OF ENDOMETRIOSIS                      DOCTOR TOOK  UTERUS AND CERVIX.   HE LEFT BOTH OVARY'S .   BEFORE  HE DID THE  HYSTERRECTOMY    HE REMOVED A CYST OFF MY CERVIX   OK MY QUESTION  IS THEY FOUND A CYST ON MY LEFT OVARY MEASURING 2.0 X 1.7 CM. THAT WAS IN 2-19-07  AND KNOW ON 6-9-08 THEY FOUND A CYST ON THE SAME OVARY MEASURING 5.5 X 4.4 CM. THEY SAY THERE NO FREE FLUID  SEEN.  THEY DIDN'T DO ANY ULTRASOUNDS BETWEEN 2-19-07 AND 6-9-08 COULD IT BE THE SAME CYST  IF SO WHAT MADE IT GET LARGER? I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT KIND OF CYST IT IS?

with endo you body is producing to much estrogen there for that is what is making it grow . Most cases call for a full hyserectomy and no estrogen for four to six months allowing the areas to heal and not start grown again . I have lived this life I understand your pain . I finally for a doc that didnt want to use me as a science project . He said your cervix is fused and your uterus is enlarged now you know that endo dose this right I said "yep"  and he said you know the only way to get rid of endo is by having a full hysto right I said "YEP"  

I hope this helped you alittle  there are so many things out there that can supposly help but all the woman in my family have had to have a full hysto because of the same thing between the ages of 30 - 35  I am 30 y/o!    endo is passed to the next female offspring only to be worse . from my reading . I am the youngest one to have it done my mother was 32 and my Aunt was 34 my g-ma was 35  .
I hope for the best for you ! I will be in the hospital having my full hyso in about 24 hours from now I CANT WAIT and I am Thanking God every day that I had a boy and not a girl!!!

You should post this question in the Ovarian Cyst community. You might find an answer there. Not sure if it's the same cyst or not, did they tell you it was, or did the doctor not tell you anything? I had cysts that large before. Not finding free fluid is a good sign :)
