I'm really worried because I've been having a lot of pain on the left side of my stomach and irregular periods for about a year now. I recently had an ovary scan and they found follicles. It's been really tough dealing with this pain and I'm not sure what to do. Is there any way to decrease the pain and the number of follicles? I'm looking for a more permanent solution, if possible.

My ultrasound report says my right ovary is bulky and there's a 3.2x2.2 cm cyst without septation. Should I be considering surgery for this or will medication be enough to treat it? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my health.

Myomectomy is the procedure advised to the patient.Complications like torsion ,abdominal pain ,bloating sensation can be prevented.Gynaecologist opinion is advised for further management of the cyst.

I recently had an MTP at 6 weeks, and my ultrasound after 10 days showed there's still some products left in the upper abdomen area, measuring about 18x13.5x10.4 mm. I'm worried and wondering if a D&C is absolutely necessary, or if taking another dose of misoprostol might be an option. What would you recommend?
