Cyst during pregnancy

[Fleabag84]

Hi everyone I'm 7+1 and last week I had sudden pain on right side so went to EPU. I was very lucky I got to see a heartbeat but they found 2 cysts on my right ovary. I'm in agony. I have endometriosis and wonder if that is making the pain worse. Just wondered if anyone else is in the same boat or has been before? Hoping the cysts go on their own and soon and that I don't have this the whole pregnancy.

I had cysts on an ovary in early pregnancy, the midwife explained it is good because the cysts produce a hormone that help the pregnancy. When the placenta takes over the cysts usually go away.

I had a 9cm one on my ovary that they found at my 12 wk scan. I had to have a scan at 16 weeks to make sure it was shrinking (it was) and by 20 week scan it had all but gone 😊

Thank you both so much, great to hear. Im struggling a bit so it's helpful to have positive stories.

💐 For you op. Early pregnancy is just such an odd time (or it was for me anyway! Come to think of it the whole thing felt surreal!) xx

I had one too in my last pregnancy. Mine didn't resolve itself unfortunately. It kept growing (reached 17cm) and I removed it after I delivered the baby. However it did stop hurting and bothering me around 12 weeks and it never affected my pregnancy at all. Good luck!

17cm, wow! I'm glad it stopped bothering you.
Well I'm sitting on a hospital bed just now as the pain is awful and has definitely got a lot worse so I called EPU again and they said to come in. There are leukocytes in my urine and I'm waiting for bloods. I have been given stronger pain meds while I wait and I just want to sleep! The dr is pretty concerned that I shouldn't be in this much pain with the cyst so not sure what is going on. Urgh
