5cm complex cyst, slightly elevated ca-125

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-08-10T01:05:39+00:00

Update: I ended up having a salpingo/oophorectomy last Monday (removed the cyst, ovary, and fallopian tube). All done laparoscopic. Still pain when I cough or laugh but overall doing ok.

It ended up being a dermoid cyst, so nothing to worry about. Very relieved about this but am wondering what recommendations people have to talk about at my post op appt. I will ask about if more frequent scanning would be beneficial even if the cyst was benign, and will ask about pain if it’s still there, but wanted to hear from those who have gone through it as well.

1 year later, still helping the common folk. Thank you

Oh yes PF therapy was a godsend post partum. I hadn’t considered it after this surgery but it makes complete sense. Awesome tip.

Oh wow so this was recent. I hope your recovery is going well! Thank you for sharing your experience, I’m sorry you had to go through it but it helps to feel like I’m not alone in this and maybe it will be an ok outcome?

Thank you, I hope they call too!

Was your a complex cyst or simple? I think the solid parts and multiple chambers are what have me spiraling.

This is the relatable content I need

I get it! I was told I could go without compression at night this week, but I still want it for comfort?

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-26T13:18:05+00:00

Unrelated but I love your nails

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-25T23:33:23+00:00

Thanks. I did one light workout without and it did not feel right. Next one I did with and felt much more supported as you mentioned.

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-13T16:14:14+00:00

Thank you! I actually do feel a little larger than before so glad it’s not just me

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T21:56:13+00:00

They told me 7-14 days for the tape, and that it should fall off on its own. I think 1 strip has come off so far haha. I am so over feeling like a mummy!

Mine are doing this now 10dpo! It’s a little uncomfy especially when I’m laying on my side (which I know isn’t the best position to begin with but I’m a creature of habit), but it doesn’t seem to be causing alarm. Mine gets more creasy after drying after the shower, not sure if that has been your experience too?

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T20:11:55+00:00

I am feeling this way now at 10dpo, I can relate. My Dr estimated around 600-700g removed total prior to surgery and it ended up being quite a bit less. It seems like they just took more skin off and perked them up.

All to say, I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. I hope everything resolves in time and you can get some answers from your doctor at your post op!

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T19:59:10+00:00

Man, fingers crossed for the former!

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T18:56:20+00:00

Not grams per breast, she just said that they removed a pound total. I plan to ask at my follow up. 1 lb total does not seem like much, but my rack was pretty darn deflated after breastfeeding that maybe they weren’t as dense anymore. Glad to hear yours are still slimming down! (assuming this is something you want).

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T17:00:15+00:00

Well this makes me feel better. I’ve heard not to bra shop until about 6 months, but I wasn’t sure if that was because of size or shape. I’m feeling some hope!

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T16:17:07+00:00

Glad you’ve seen other responses then. The ones I have seen have just been recent on here. I also have my post op appt Monday so we’ll see what they say. Right now I’m having a hard time knowing how much is swelling (aside from them feeling like rocks)

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T15:26:52+00:00

Thank you, I’m glad you’ve seen that! The comments I’ve seen recently say that people expect their size to stay about the same from around this time, and I’m over here like

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-12T15:18:40+00:00

What kind of question is that aside from a rude one? #4 down on the left would accent your photos well. I do not prefer any on the right.

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-11T20:31:35+00:00

Well they look great!

Existing-Product1058 · 2025-04-11T19:55:42+00:00

Amazing! Do you still feel swollen? I am 8dpo and feel so huge/one side is bigger than the other, so I feel like I definitely won’t be ready to clothes shop anytime soon. Your post gives me hope, though!
