PapSmear and Cysts?

March - 6th March I got my period, however just before I did I had the worse pain cutting from my right hip bone to my left hip bone. 

I went to go see my cousin one Saturday night and we were talking about pain in the hip bone and she reminded me that she had pain as well and found out it was cysts last year. She went for a checkup 3 months later and they were gone but earlier this year she felt the pain again and now has cluster of cysts. She has to wait another 3 months to see if they will go away again, she gets Ultrasounds done because it is most effective way of seeing the cysts rather then an X-ray.... so around May she will found out. 

She told me cysts usually go away with the menstrual cycle however if they don't then an operation is needed. You can still fall pregnant and have kids, however I think there is one type of cysts that can effect your fertility.

She said I should go check it out with my doctor, I know if your on the Pill you are less likely to get Cysts but ladies still do. 

I'm planning to see doctor soon anyway, need to do the dammed PapSmear test which I'm overdue on already! Next weekend we are off to Melbourne to see the Formula One! So hopefully by end of March I can see the doc!

Here are some Home Remedies for cysts . Including Apple Cider, Chamomile and Aloe Vera!

- What are types of cysts?

Some ovarian cysts can be associated with decreased fertility. However, it depends on the type of ovarian cyst you have.

Ovarian cysts that can affect your fertility include:

• Endometriomas. Endometriomas (en-doe-me-tree-OH-muhs) are cysts caused by endometriosis, a condition in which the tissue normally lining your uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus. These ovarian cysts may be associated with fertility problems.
• Ovarian cysts resulting from polycystic ovary syndrome.Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition marked by many small cysts in your ovaries, irregular periods and high levels of certain hormones. PCOS contributes to problems with fertility in some women.

Unless they become very large, these types of ovarian cysts don't affect fertility:

• Functional cysts. Functional cysts — such as follicular cysts or corpus luteum cysts — are the most common type of ovarian cyst. Functional cysts form during a normal menstrual cycle and don't cause or contribute to infertility. In fact, functional cysts actually indicate that the necessary functions leading to fertility are taking place.
• Cystadenomas. Cystadenomas (sis-tad-uh-NO-muhs) are growths in the ovary that arise from the surface of the ovaries. Although they need treatment, they don't affect fertility.
• Dermoid cysts. These cysts contain tissue — such as skin, hair or even teeth — instead of fluid. Dermoid cysts aren't associated with infertility.

If you've been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst and are concerned about becoming pregnant, talk to your doctor.
