Septated Cyst and no period

I found out in Nov that I have a septated cyst measuring 3.1x3.6x2.3.  I haven't had my period since October.  Doc put me on Provera, finished last dose on Thursday, still nothing!  About a yr and a half ago I had my left ovary removed due to a benign fibroma.  At this point I don't know what to think!  Any suggestions...ps my sister died of ovca at 19.  Thx.

Have you had a f/u ultrasound?  Did you ever get your period?  I hope you are okay.  xoxo from Arizona

Have you had a follow-up ultrasound to determine if the mass is still present, or did the hormone treatment cause it to resolve?  If you still have the complex cyst, then you should discuss with your doctor what step should be the next step of your treatment.

I'm supposed to have a follow up us done after I get my period.  I stopped taking the Provera just 2 days ago and still haven't gotten my period.  I saw my reg doc yesterday because of tiredness & some shortness of breath - he was suprised that I hadn't gotten my period yet.  I had benign fibroma the other yr that was removed along w/ my ovary- it started out much the same way, with the exception that it didn't interupt my cycle and it caused a lot of pain.  I'm going to call gyn on Monday and see if we can't go ahead and do the us now, rather than wait.

Keep a good watch on it.  Septations usually show complex cysts which makes matters more scary but never definitive of ovca.  With family history I am sure makes you anxious. Let us know how it turns out.  You may want to consult a gyn/onc.
