Try BBQ sauce on "your ovaries"  that might work also along with the castor oil.  Got them all wrapped up in cellophane with a bow for Christmas , no less.

I was diagnosed last year with solid and liquid cysts in and on my ovaries, some were over 4".  My Ca 125 test kept coming back higher every time they took it, I had all the symptoms of cancer and my Gyne at Dana Farber advised me to go in for surgery asap.  I went to a healing mass and was healed of the cancer but not the cysts or blocked fallopian tubes.

In doing research since my husband is a research neurosurgeon, I found out that I'm insulin resistant, which is one of the main problems causing the cysts.  I also found out that caster oil has the ability to dissolve tumors, cysts, and scar tissue.  I did an experiment with my toes since I had surgery on them and since then they were huge from scar tissue.  I put a heavy coat of caster oil on every night and wrapped them in plastic bags.  Within one week they began shrinking back to normal so I know the caster oil works.  I am now applying it over my ovaries and wrapping celephane and I know something is happening because 'junk' is starting to come out for the first time.  

There are 2 companies I've found that can address the problem of why we're getting cysts, (our hormones are out of whack):  

Biogeitca.com  &   PCOS.insulitelabs.com

I'd recommend getting tests done (Maybe by endocrinologist) to see if you have hormonal imbalances, although tests vary from day to day since our hormones vary.  Make sure you get a glucose test & insulin resistant test both done.  The insulin resistant test will have you fast for 24 hours, test your insulin levels, then test you again after you eat.  Make sure you eat junk to really see what happens when you eat junk.  There's answers out there, and surgery can be avoided.  Surgery only addresses the symptoms, not the problem.  Heal the problem, and the symptoms will go away.  

Also, change how you think.  Let go of fear, anger, resentment, that's what's fueling the problem.  Forgive, love, and be grateful of your life more and you'll do more than fix one problem!

I'm glad the info was useful, but I hope it didn't scare you though. I have another link with US images, that is really great, but could not find it. When I do, I will share it with you.
This forum is all about sharing info and experiences and combining our collective experiences and wisdom.

I hope you get a good answer soon from your doctor, you have been waiting a long time and have been very patient (much more patient than I). Does your doctor think it is endometriosis/endometrioma? That would explain the infertility.

Good luck and keep in touch.

Ultrasound plus observation can usually distinguish.

A simplistic explanation for a hemorrhagic cyst is a cyst that has bleed into itself, caused a big ole blood clot, that then bleeds itself out.

Here is a link with some US images (careful, some are grahic):

An endometrioma is endometrosis inside the ovary or ovaries:
Here is a link with some US images (careful, some are grahic):
http://www.lexic.us/definition-of/endometrioma

Hemorrhagic cysts look less uniform than endometriomas. Endometriomas look like "ground glass" or better yet "snow" on a tv screen.

Hemorrhagic cysts eventually shrink or go away, endometriommas do not., they have to be surgically removed (if bothersome).

Endometriosis can affect fertility, but not always (it didn't affect mine).
You can loose one ovary and part of the other and still retain fertility.

Good luck.
