My sister's been dealing with a 9mm right ovarian cyst for almost a year now, and despite going through several treatments, she's not getting better. Now she's started vomiting even when she hasnt eaten, she's got constant body pain, continuous diarrhea, and sharp pain in her lower abdomen. Could you guide me on what kind of specialist we should see and what tests or exams might be necessary?

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.
