This can be normal but horrible. Using
heat can help. Taking ibuprofen (motrin)
is very effective to alleviate cramps. It
is a pain reliever but also has the added
benefit of being an anti-inflammatory. The
tissue in the pelvis and uterus swell and
this causes the pain and bloating. Motrin
can relieve both problems. Taking
ibuprofen for a couple of days prior to
the onset of your period can greatly
reduce the cramping once your period
begins. Taking the ibuprofen during your
period is very effective. If you are
saturating a pad or tampon every one to
two hours you need to see your gyn as this
is considered excessive bleeding.
yah iv had the same problem for 2 years
now and im 16... there are days were they
make me vary light headed and have nausea
all day. oh and in pe if they tell you to
move faster dont you will only make it
hurt way worse. Hot baths feel wonderful
but i have cysts all the time so my left
side always hurts... Hope you get some
thing to control then i still have yet to
find something healthy that will control
mine.

Ovarian cysts during pregnancy can be of
two types namely benign and malignant.
While benign cysts pose very little threat
during pregnancy, malignant ovarian cysts
can be dangerous during the delicate
pregnancy stage. Hence, the first thing
you should conform is the type of ovarian
cyst you have. Treatment for ovarian cyst
depends mostly on the type of cyst you
have and the extent of the problem. Some
types of cysts can be resolved on their
own. However, it is always advisable to
monitor your ovarian cysts carefully in
order to avoid complications like ovarian
cysts rupture during pregnancy. Sometimes,
complications can manifest themselves
suddenly and out of the blue. Thus even
benign ovarian cysts should not be taken
for granted during pregnancy.
