I had to have mine sugically removed but i wasnt pregnant at the time. Did you dr say that they could remove them or try to shrink them? You can try a warm bath for temporary relief. Im sorry your in pain.

[kaysie03]

Btw i was talking to the girl above you clearly wasn't aware. I would hope you were aware of where it was located considering you have them.

^ an ovarian cyst is on your ovaries.

They are ovarian cysts I have had them for about a year now. And if I walk to stand for to long they hurt so bad like really bad cramps only on the left and right side never anywherr else and its always in the same spot.

So  I'm not to sure if you start developing milk in your breast at this time. But from my last pregnancy around the time I was about to go in labor I would get very large ones under my arm pit. And my doctor said it was a biluild up of milk that I was producing so it wasn't a cyst it just looked like one it was just milk. That may possible be it but again I've never heard of it happening that soon your just 17 weeks ...

I'm not sure how much of a difference pregnancy makes for pain level, but a couple years back I had 7 on one ovary, and 8 on the other, and the only relief I found from it before I had them removed, was hot showers. Mine would constantly rupture and grow back, and I could always feel the rupture happening, and I would immediately jump in the shower, and it relieved quite a bit of the pain that otherwise would've had me in the floor. Other than that, I've found that there's not a lot you can do for it. Hopefully somebody will have a better answer for the both of us!
