    Ovarian cysts
    Is there another way of removing cysts rather than doing a laparoscopic surgery?I'm so scared due to my previous cholecystectomy opp that had major complications and caused disorders. Any suggestions Maybe medication?

    I'm not aware of any medications that would take them away. They usually "pop" on their own. If they are causing a lot of pain or complications I would have them removed.

    What type of complications did you have with your last operation?

    I had a cholecystectomy procedure done and the Dr messed my intestines and could not see and 2 days later was taken back to theatre for laparoscopic that showed perforation in my lower abdomen and sepsis in my bowel and I woke up having this big opp in my tummy down underneath my belly. What worries me much is the Dr told me she will do laparoscopic but due to my previous opp she is afraid there might be disorders that will that would make her not to work properly from the first cut and will then have to cut open again underneath my belly to work there and I must not be surprised if I woke up having a c-section opp, I'm a bit scared because obvious there might be disorders maybe intestines close to the wall and she might mess with them again that is why I needed a second opinion. I don't really have severe pains and my periods are just normal

    Many cysts come and go with each cycle a woman has. However, if they become larger, laproscopic surgery is the next best thing. Beyond that, you would have to have in-patient surgery to have larger cysts/tumors removed.

    I can understand why you'd be scared, but most likely, what your doctor recommended is best based on what you wrote. Good luck

    I had a 15lb ovarian tumor removed by a "c-section" surgery when I was 19. Definitely get it taken care of - mine was cancerous.
