Can a Rt hemmorhagic ovarian cyst cause left abdominal pain?


My wife has a 3-4 cm Rt ovarian hemmorhagic cyst she currently has some Rt pain issues but was recently in the emergency room with elevated white count and in addition to the hemmorhagic cyst she had left abdominal pain

Yes, I just had my left ovary removed but I had right abdominal pain. It doesn't make sense to me either but I know that it happens. I have had several cyst over the course of 15 years and the pain has always been on the reverse side of the cyst.

A cyst is a fluid-filled sac. In most cases a cyst on the ovary does no harm and goes away by itself. Most women have them sometime during their lives. Cysts are rarely cancerous in women under 50. Cysts sometimes hurt - but not always. Often, a woman finds out about a cyst when she has a pelvic exam.

If you're in your childbearing years or past menopause, have no symptoms, and have a fluid-filled cyst, you may choose to monitor the cyst. You may need surgery if you have pain, are past menopause or if the cyst does not go away. Birth control pills can help prevent new cysts.

A health problem that may involve ovarian cysts is polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Women with PCOS can have high levels of male hormones, irregular or no periods and small ovarian cysts.

Hemmorhagic called 'VHFs"
Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) are a group of illnesses caused by four families of viruses. These include the Ebola and Marburg viruses and Lassa fever virus. VHFs have common features: they affect many organs, they damage the blood vessels and they affect the body's ability to regulate itself. Some VHFs cause mild disease, but some, like Ebola or Marburg, cause severe disease and death.

VHFs are found around the world. Specific diseases are usually limited to areas where the animals that carry them live. For example, Lassa fever is limited to rural areas of West Africa where rats and mice carry the virus.

The risk for travelers is low, but you should avoid visiting areas where there are disease outbreaks. Because there are no effective treatment for some of these viral infections, there is concern about their use in bioterrouism.
