I've been experiencing pain on the left side of my breast for about 34 months now, and it's been continuous. About 67 months ago, I also started noticing cyclical mastalgia. Its getting really concerning for me. Could these two be somehow related? Should I be worried about something more serious? How should I approach getting this checked out?

I have a dermoid cyst in my right ovary measuring 43x34x44 mm from an MRI in February and it might have grown since then. I feel swelling in my right thigh and abdomen. Several gynecologists recommended laparoscopy because they say it contains hair and teeth and could twist. I'm hesitant about surgery can homeopathy actually dissolve this kind of cyst? I'm single and a bit nervous about going under the knife.

Dermoid cysts with hair or teeth elements do not dissolve naturally.Laparoscopy is usually recommended to prevent complications like torsion.
