brown dishcarge turned into heavy bleeding with ovarian cyst Posted: 03-16-08 19:53pm
I am 41 years old, trying to conceive for
the last 2 years. This past month I
started having mild cramping, bloating and
light to dark brown discharge about 6 days
b4 my period was due (Reg cycle - 29days).
Fertility doc did vag. ultrasound and
found a large ovarian cyst on the right
side that was producing it's own hormones.
No birth control pills given, he said it
was better to let it go away on its own
(1-3 mo). My husband and I had
intercourse and now I am bleeding heavily!
This Wed. it will be 2 weeks of this
dishcarge and bleeding....is this normal?
And will I have a higher chance of getting
more cysts after this one? Will I ever be
able to conceive???

What I found online: mosts cysts go away,
are really common, and aren't a problem,
however, they might need to be monitored
if you experience heavy bleeding. (And
this might be more to keep you comfortable
than anything serious)
There is a tiny tiny chance that it could
be ovarian cancer, but that;s really
unlikely. And as long as it's not, chances
are, your fertility it perfectly fine.
I don't think you're at risk to get more,
or that it's something to worry about. But
do tell your doc about the bleeding.
