I am 22 with one young child, and I have had ovarian cysts since I was 17 (diagnosed). I have had 3 rupture--the first two sent me to the ER, but by the third time I'd figured it out and just dealt with it at home!! (It's not like they'll do anything for them, anyway) In my research, I have discovered that the biggest cause (and cure) for Ovarian Cysts (or POS) is DIET. Specifically, hormones in the food we eat and sugar. I have, through personal experience, found the elimination of both to be highly successful in eliminating any problems I've had!
It's hard to give up sugar at first, but it really is poison to our systems, and once you've been off it for awhile, you won't want to eat it again! Beware, though: you will probably have INTENSE sugar cravings. Ignore them. Tell yourself: "What's more important--having this sugar-filled thing or not having any more ovarian cysts?" And as far as hormones in food are concerned, just make sure you're drinking organic milk (and eating organic dairy products) and the meat you buy is hormone- and antibiotic-free. You will notice a HUGE difference in a month or two!! If you can afford it, eat as much organic food as possible--especially fruits and veggies. There are other things--supplements, teas, various herbs--that can help, too, but I'd have to write an awful lot!! If you'd like any more info, email me at ***@**** , I'd love to hear from you!!
Good luck, all!
I am 24 and have had problems with cysts since the age of 17. I now have 3 cysts on my right ovary, I have been doped up on pain killers for the past three days while waiting to see my OBGYN. I have not had a period in three years. I'm not on birth control. I'm at a loss. I have hair that grows on my face (and other odd out of place areas), hotflashes, no periods, weight gain and cysts. The doctors I see don't take the time to really explain things to me. I'm tired of being doped up and I'm really worried about the cysts becoming cancerous. My aunt and grandmother both had historectomies in their 20's. Any words of support or similarities? Any advise?
Thanks, SWEETMELISSA :)
