What is an ovarian cyst?

Ovarian cysts may be best described as fluid encased follicles within the ovaries measuring the size of a pea to a cantaloupe (medium sized). When the follicles are larger than 2 centimetres, then the growth is said to be a cyst. Most of the ovarian cysts are functional, benign and create very little or no trouble at all till the get ruptured or grow enormous in dimension. Almost every woman who has not attained menopause has these cysts in the US. It has been found that 14.8% of women after menopause have the cyst. Ovarian Carcinoma is found in 15 cases out of 100000 women each year. In recent years, herbal treatments to cure ovarian cysts have become popular.

Ovarian cysts affect women of all ages. But they occur in most cases at the stage of life when she can have a baby. In some cases the cysts give rise to problems, such as bleeding and pain and may have to be surgically removed.

Ovarian cyst options for treatments

The fact is, ovarian cysts today are a major cause of excessive bleeding, infertility and pain in women. You need to test to be sure because they are in most cases benign. Surgery remains the most popular treatment option. But in reality, in most cases, surgery is not desirable and is also not a feasible alternative. This is because surgery often leads to side effects such as the cysts coming back in the future. ‘Synthetic Hormone Therapy’ is another option. Hysterectomy is also one more options that are presented to women. In recent years however, ‘Ovarian Cyst Herbal Treatments’ have become available as a treatment option.

It takes about three to six months for 100% relief from cysts with the herbal treatment approach. Of course, this can vary depending on the size of the cyst and how many of them are there. The liver also needs to be supported and cleaned simultaneously, as it can regulate the hormone levels in the body, and can also clean the blood. The diet is also important here as there are a few food items that can make the situation worse - and there are some that can control the cyst and how frequently they appear.

Foods

Green leafy vegetables, particularly when taken in the raw form can both provide relief and stop the cyst from making a comeback. Plus, you should also go for whole foods, whole grains, legumes, fruits and garlic. And the ones that are to be avoided are processed and refined foods, red meat, fat, carbonated beverages, caffeine, eggs, alcohol and sugar. Remember, a natural and balanced diet makes you healthy and fit.

From week 2 to the arrival of the menstrual cycle

Here is a herbal treatment that can be useful in this period. It has 3 capsules of vitex & black cohosh, 2 capsules of dandelion root & black haw, 1 capsule that has bee pollen, pau d’arco and chaparral. Take this 2 times in a day. Take this from the 2nd week after the cycle till the period begins again.

From the starting to the 2nd week

During this period the herbal treatment consists of taking 3 capsules of milk thistle and black and blue cohosh, 2 capsules of ‘wild yam’, and 1 capsule of chaparral, pau d’ arco, yarrow and bee pollen. This combination too needs to be consumed twice a day.

Please remember to supplement these medicines with vitamins A, E and C.

These therapies need to be practiced for 3 months (minimum) alternatively and this needs to go on for one year. IT depends on the length and the severity of the problem. But do remember that the above mentioned method and medicines are only a ‘General Suggestion’.

Holistic approach towards total recovery

The most effective way to total recovery is in holistic treatments. Ovarian cyst herbal treatments also are more effective if the holistic approach is taken up. Thus, it can be said that the holistic approach works more effectively and cannot be matched up with when it comes to the results. Where the conventional system and the holistic one differ is that, in the conventional approach, diagnosing and treating the symptoms is given a priority, whereas in the holistic way, more importance is given to finding out a healthy spirit/body/mind combination that can prevent the cysts. Holistic approach also focuses on uncovering the primary causes of the condition and leverages the power of natural therapies to eradicate the main contributing factors of ovarian cysts. This approach is often more effective as the healing is faster, there is no need for surgery and the medical interventions are also less.

Awareness - this is where the holistic approach begins from. It has been proven that when a patient knows what the problem is, she would co-operate and work in partnership. Once she has been reassured that ovarian cysts are really quite common in her reproductive phase, she would whole heartedly cooperate and support the therapy, so very vital in speedy recovery. The truth that ovarian cysts are quite harmless and they are nothing abnormal will also help in regaining her confidence. Conclusively speaking, ovarian cyst herbal treatments when applied with the holistic approach yield a better result.

Anyone who has a cyst in the ovary is prone to various complications that may arise from it. Thus if there are certain symptoms, it is always best to go for a pelvic scan or examination. Sometimes the size of the cyst can also be very large and when this is the case, the abdominal pain can be acute. In some cases, the cyst also presses the urinary bladder and so the person may need to urinate more often. Ovarian cyst treatments are most successfully achieved through holistic remedies.

There is another reason why it is so important to get yourself checked for the condition of ovarian cysts. Though in most cases ovarian cysts are benign in nature yet in some cases women do develop complicated forms of ovarian cysts which are not that common. It is these uncommon forms of cysts that give rise to various forms of complications and problems. It is also been noted that sometimes the symptoms of an ovarian cyst have been mistaken as the symptoms of pregnancy. In fact many women have realized the truth only after they had severe bleeding which they mistook for a miscarriage and when for a checkup.

It is not that only a malignant cyst can cause complications, but cysts that do cause complications are not benign in nature. And it is only at a very late stage that you might be able to realize the pain or the symptoms of the cyst. Ovarian cysts can also affect the fertility of the patient. There might be cases where a cyst occurs when the patient has already reached her menopause, in such cases complications are bound to occur and most of these cysts turn cancerous.

We give below examples of the non functional kind of ovarian cysts that are known to cause more complications.

(1) The Dermoid Ovarian Cysts: These cysts are formed by the same cells that produce the human eggs. Because of this reason, these cysts at times contain teeth, hair skin or many other types of human tissues. This condition can become very painful if the cysts becomes very large in size and also these cysts have a tendency to twist over themselves which makes the condition even more painful.

(2) Endometriomas: The uterus cells help the cyst to grow but it grows on the uterus’ outside - but it is still attached to the ovary.

(3) Cystadenomas: They can get as big as 12 inches, and lead to complications such as the ovary getting twisted. Such cysts are fluid contained.

The type pf the cyst also determines what the complications are. Those cysts that are non functional, are the ones that lead to the maximum complications. The reason behind this is the fact that functional cysts can be treated with medications and also through surgery. And those cysts that cannot be classified also lead to complications as their causes are not identified - as a result, the treatment is also not determined. Having sex while carrying the cyst is not good as there can be a lot of pain and some bleeding too.

The complications of cysts can be treated surely, yet most treatment options treat just the symptoms. But the holistic approach tries to identify the real causes due to which the cyst is getting formed and having done so, treats them and not just the symptoms such as the pain. What causes the cyst may be varied such as immunity problems, obesity, toxins in the digestive system, poor diet, other medical problems and even genetic reasons.

Thus when you want to treat ovarian cysts successfully, it is best to select the holistic approach because the approach deals with finding out what causes the cyst and then treating it, instead of just treating the symptoms.

There is yet another reason why you should have a check up done for ovarian cysts and other pelvic conditions and that is that some women develop ovarian cysts that are not commonly found. These are painless and do not result in any of the common symptoms which accompany the usual type of ovarian cysts. It is these uncommon types of cysts that can cause complications. It has also been found that sometimes the symptoms are hard to distinguish from those found at the time of pregnancy. As a matter of fact, many women have only come to realize that they have developed ovarian cysts after they have bled severely. Initially, they mistook this bleeding for miscarriage.

It is not that only a malignant cyst can cause complications, but cysts that do cause complications are not benign in nature. And it is only at a very late stage that you might be able to realize the pain or the symptoms of the cyst. Ovarian cysts can also affect the fertility of the patient.

3) Cystadenomas: A cyst that is filled with fluids, these can grow to a size of 12 inches. These ovarian cysts can cause complications such as the twisting of the ovary.

Having sex while carrying the cyst is not good as there can be a lot of pain and some bleeding too.

But all these complications related to ovarian cysts can be treated. But most of the conventional treatments focus only on the symptoms rather than on the root cause of the problem. The holistic approach on the other hand emphasizes the need to eliminate the root cause of the ovarian cysts instead of just treating the symptoms. The root cause of the ovarian cyst may vary from obesity to a weak immune system, accumulation of toxics in the digestive system, genetics and poor diet and various other health related issues.

Therefore, it is important to adopt the holistic approach if you want to cure the complications of ovarian cysts completely. This lays emphasis on treating the real cause of the malady rather than just dealing with its symptoms.

How I Eliminated My Ovarian Cysts: Judy Hudson’s Personal Ovarian Cyst Story

Hi, my name is Judy Hudson. I was diagnosed with ovarian cysts about 3 years ago.

It all began when I started having dull pains about two weeks before my period that I dismissed as menstrual cramps. After several months of experiencing mild cramping in my lower abdomen, as well as nausea, I was admitted to hospital to as the physician suspected appendicitis. I then saw a gynecologist who informed me she’d felt a medium sized cyst on my right ovary and several small follicular cysts on my left ovary.

My doctor advised me to wait and come back in several months — and hope for the best — but the pain was getting worse as the days went by and I found myself taking pain killers daily. On top of that I couldn’t sleep as fear and anxiety took hold of me. I still experienced a lingering, knife-like pain intermittently throughout the day. This went on for months. Some days the pain was so exhausting I couldn’t even go to work.

On my second visit to the doctor, my worst fears were realized: I found out that my cysts had actually grown larger. I now had a 6.8 cm cyst on my right ovary and the cysts on my left ovary had grown to 3-4 cm each. I didn’t want to resort to surgery as I knew the tremendous risk involved and the chance of not being able to have children in the future, but the only alternative was to resort to various drugs and birth control pills. These simply did not work.

The ovarian cyst on my right ovary continued to grow and the pain was unbearable. I can recall the times when I would curl up in a ball because the pain was so severe. I was at the end of my tether.

In my quest for a cure I stumbled upon a website created by a nutritionist named Mary Parker. She claimed to have suffered from ovarian cysts for eleven years until she discovered a unique holistic solution for all types of ovarian cysts and PCOS. It appeared from the website that Mary was honest and knew what she was talking about. Anything was worth a shot at this point so I bought the book right away.

It is important to note that before I bought Mary’s program, I tried numerous diets, took herbal supplements, tried Chinese medicine, reflexology, homeopathy remedies, progesterone creams — you name it — but nothing worked! I can assure you that Mary’s program is unlike anything you have ever seen.

I followed Mary’s instructions step by step.

The results were almost instantaneous! After two days I felt a major relief and after about three weeks the pain was very slight for the first time in months and then finally it disappeared completely. Six weeks later I had an ultrasound test and my jaws dropped when I saw the results. All the cysts (both on my right and left ovary) had vanished. My doctor was practically speechless and so was I. It was the closest thing to a miracle that I have ever experienced.

I am a totally different person today. I have lots of energy. I sleep through the night. I awake alert and full of life. I feel rejuvenated, energized, happier and so much healthier.

I will forever be grateful to Mary Parker.

I’m so excited about my recovery that I want to share it with the world. I created this website just for that purpose.
