View allHow dangerous is a left ovarian cyst that measures 51x36x43mm? Will it resolve on its own, or would I need medication or laparoscopic surgery to remove it? I'm really concerned and would like some advice.
A 51x36x43mm ovarian cyst (around 5cm in diameter) is not inherently dangerous, but it's a size that warrants monitoring and potentially further evaluation. It's possible the cyst could resolve on its own, especially if it's a functional cyst related to ovulation. However, larger cysts carry a slightly increased risk of complications like rupture, ovarian torsion, or pressure on other organs, and it's important to rule out malignancy, especially in postmenopausal women.

I've been diagnosed with a 4.5cm chocolate cyst and my doctor suggested laparoscopic surgery. Is this procedure safe and will it affect my chances of getting pregnant afterward? Also how long does recovery usually take after this type of surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery for a chocolate cyst is generally safe and can even improve fertility chances after surgery. While there are some risks associated with any surgery, the laparoscopic approach is minimally invasive, reducing the risk of complications. Recovery usually takes a week or two, with most activities resumed within that timeframe

I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?
Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.
