Before I spend money going to a doctor I want to find out myself if I have it.
Cysts can cause pain in your abdomen, lower back, and legs. they can also cause spotting. Keep in mind that you might not have symptoms at all if you have one. I have one on my left ovary about 3 cm big and I never felt a thing. Also it's good to know that most cysts are benign and aren't a problem. It's somewhat rare that they could be cancerous. If you have one that's painful, you need to visit a doctor just in case.
There are many symptoms,
Irregular (or missing) periods, hair loss, excess hair, acne, obesity and fertility problems.
My main symptom was not having any period for 10 months. Then my doctor finally sent me for a scan at the hospital where they confirmed I had PCOS.
Hope this helps!
I use to have really bad cramps and irregular periods. I was diagnosed with functional cyst (comes and goes so it is not cancerous) thank GOD. my doctor prescribed me birth control pill and it got better. There are diffferent types of ovarian cyst and you can check it through altra sound.
I have that, how I found out was that I didn't get periods and went for an ultrasound and they spotted it. some people have excess hair growth, lots of spots and things like that. ( I was lucky with my symptoms!)
