How long does a ovarian cyst pain last?

Ah, ovarian cysts. Ovaries are like the high school experience you can’t escape. And when cysts decide to pop up, it feels like that one kid who never showered and talked about Magic: The Gathering until you just wanted to gouge your eyes out with a spoon.

What is an ovarian cyst?

An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that grows on one or both ovaries- kind of like when trash begins to pile up in your room because you’ve been eating in bed for weeks straight.

Why do I have this pain?

If there’s something everyone knows about female anatomy; is that the least of our problems seems to be pain from anything below our diaphragm level- everything else ain’t even worth mentioning-having cramps every time we breathe too deeply isn’t exactly funning but hey at least it’s a shared experience among all women ever-presenting across generations but back to reality and those pesky sacks – A common type known as functional or physiologic ones usually go away on their own without treatment within 2 menstrual cycles but sometime they grow larger than expected turning into what we call abnormality giving rise to symptoms such as bloating , pressure, abdominal swelling and worst of them all – excuriating omfsm-pain… oh why couldn’t have given us wings instead God ?!

How long does this suck-fest last?

So you’ve realized (or perhaps already knew.) You might get stuck with one of these shifty little critters (non-functional/ abnormally large), YAY!– and now the question arises : how long will it take till this annoyance retreats from me life?!

The answer may vary from person-to-person—with several types of ovarian cysts existing. However, generally—one can assume the following:

-A functional cyst tends to vanish on its own quickly, within a couple of weeks.

-An abnormally large cyst usually stays for 2-3 months with little change (getting bigger yay)

  • A ruptured one -which is what happens when there’s too much liquid trying to get out of an itty-bitty space-releases fluid into your body which given our diverse response mechanisms will mostly frequently cause pain from a day to several days.

Pain Management…What do I do now?

Well…if given too many pizzas, we would eventually cramp up enough and start using words like “weight loss goals,” but until that happens let’s stick our misery specifically with this tumor-like parasite.

Other than waiting it out as Robin Thicke once told us in two thousand thirteen (long time ago doesn’t it seem?) there’re plenty of breakthroughs allowing for swift control over the situation you could opt for :

  1. Over-the-counter (OTC) pain relief

So first things first: Visit your local Personal Care § Hygiene goods store and grab some OTC drugs such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen . These have properties that help alleviate inflammation & decrease pain up to some extent unless you’re superhuman …then congrats! albeitthe latter seems unlikely .

Looking at other alternatives aside from Traditional medicine/received care practices

  1. Use heat therapy
    Who needs a significant other when they can get cozy under blankets ?!, Grabbing heat pads are also another option available since exposure relaxes muscles ultimately having them ease-up ^^^pun ^^very ^^much-intended any unease.

  2. Experimentingwith mellow exercises/yoga
    Engaging in gentle physical activity such as yoga \^\^sounds-like-loudly-whispered-heavy-breathing-tbh helps by relaxing tense muscles potentially causing the cyst to dissolve in much less time. If it’s too painful upfront, wait for the specialist’s nod of approval before trying anything new.

  3. Acupuncture and/or Hypnotherapy
    Yet another alternative is alternative medicine- Acupuncture/ hypnotherapy are complementary options available where specialized individuals manipulate your body through needles or verbally induced relaxation techniques ultimately not only reducing pain but also getting you a tantric chill throughout expelling weekly built-up tension we all store away up and close within ourselves ..chef-kiss

When do I see my doctor?

Now that we’ve got the necessary substandard humor out of our system – let’s get real for a moment –if after days (that feel like lightning-speed years) of indulging in motrin-munching-the pain continues oh so stubbornly inducing … It may be time to make an appointment with your gynecologist (or possibly consult any health care professional nearby).

If experiencing symptoms such as:

  • Sudden onset acute sharp upper abdominal pain
  • High fever associated with vomiting when severe enough to prohibit food intake.

It means something might have gone wrong during this period— which could require immediate medical attention & intervention such as a possible surgical removal(operation)/prescribed medication.which will end up slightly more expensive than skipping gym memberships
last-ditch caveat:

We’ve listed ways where everyone can handle their daily suffering tolerably from home . However, Please keep in mind always prioritize seeking qualified medical help..we’re never too good to ask/reference experts.

Conclusion : Ovarian Cysts don’t stand a chance against us!

So yes ladies Ovarian cysts ,on top of every other thing womanhood throws at us can still climb high on mountains casting shadows over our world…but we shall always find some way/trick up our sleeves- or heat pads to keep us going even if the pesky critters get too clingy.
