Had chlamydia and ovarian cyst.

Hi Ladies!

Lately I’ve been having severe pains in my lower abdomen and my back. It’s spreading all over my thighs down to my legs. I thought it was nothing serious until midnight Sept 30 I was really in pain and decided to go to the hospital. We came 12:30 am and did urine&blood test, ultrasound and more. When the results came out, a cyst was noted on my left ovary, so I was referred to a gynecologist by my physician. The gynecologist reviewed my test results, scheduled me for laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy that same day. I honestly didn’t know what to feel and say that time. I was asleep from then on until I woke up in my hospital bed.

Biopsy went out and it was normal. The cyst was benign.

After a week, I noticed a lot of yellow vaginal discharge. It wasnt normal so I went to a nearby clinic for a vaginal swab. After a week, October 14, 2017, results came out and the doctor said I had chlamydia. I was given antibiotics at once. And though I still have some vaginal discharge, it lessen.

i'm just so scared about what's gonna happen to me next. Especially about fertility. Ladies have the same experience as me? I'm so sad and depressed. Any words? :(

Hi how were you tested for chlamydia? false positives to happen unless it was a swab of the discharge. from what your describing it would really appear as you got a simple yeast infection from the surgery as the timing of a week later is a good indicator.

I just noticed that a swab was done but the discharge would certainly appear from the surgery yeast not chlamydia. When stds like chlamydia infect and cause complications the symptoms would appear as PID but since cyst was found the pain most likely was from that not the chlamydia causing any lasting complications.
