Cancelled - Infertility Message Board

My first cycle with injectables has been cancelled before it even started. I went for my baseline ultrasound and bloodwork today, and they found a cyst on my ovary. First the ultrasonographer tells me " oh I see you have a tipped uterus, but they probably told you that, it's no big deal"
No one's ever mentioned it, thankyou very much. I had surgery three weeks ago and my RE was just in there looking around and said it was fine. Then she looks at the right ovary and goes "Oh My!" I could have just died!
Of course when I was talking to the nurse, I didn't ask any questions because all I could think was "cyst, cancelled cycle, oh my GOD!" I just don't understand why I have a cyst when it wasn't there three weeks ago. I feel nothing either. So now I'll be on birth control pills for this month to try to shrink it. I can't believe this #$%! I spent the day crying and now am putting it all in perspective. I guess after waiting for three years one more month or so won't kill me. This roller coaster is not a very fun ride. I'm not saying "WEEEEEEE" all the way down! Screw it, I'm having a Bud.

Lucylou,

You are doing the right think by taking bcps. In February, I had a cyst in my left ovary, and I choose not to take the bcp. So, in March, the cysts on the left was gone, but I had two in the right ovary. I took bcp in March, and it got rid of all of them. I was able to TTC here at the end of April. I lost a month because I ignored the doc.

I know it's hard to lose a month, but the cysts generally go away. You should be good to go next month.

Sorry Lucylou,

I also had a cancelled cycle last month due to low estrogen and small follicles after injecting for 3 weeks. Boy was I freakin mad. Cried for 4 days and laid in bed feeling sorry for myself-Ate a boatload of donuts too. Out of the 12 girls in my cycle I got cut and I was ****ed. I finally got over it but it took about a week. I know you are sad and depressed right now but I promise you it will be ok. Vent and scream on this board all you want. WE UNDERSTAND!! feel better.

Damn Lucy- that stinks. :-(

I had my first cycle cancelled due to a cyst too. The good news is, the next month it was gone, and I got to get started.

Hope this month passes at the speed of light for you.
