Ovarian Cyst Treatments – What Is Available?

You�ve been through the doctor�s appointments, the doctor�s come back and the diagnosis is in: Ovarian Cysts or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). What treatments are available for this? What will your doctor recommend?

Typically the treatments will go down the standard paths, drug therapy with insulin suppressing drugs or anti-androgens that suppress the androgen your body is making.

Keep in mind these treatments are still drugs – drugs that will have side-effects and cause reactions in your body that you may not be prepared for. As much as everyone wants a pill that cures our body�s problems, there isn�t one. The best drugs can do for us now is to suppress the main symptoms and let us live normally.

One popular drug therapy is metformin – metformin is a drug originally used to treat type 2 Diabetes and increase the body’s response to insulin, but now used as a treatment for pcos. In pcos patients the body gains insulin resistance, making metformin an available treatment for pcos. Insulin resistance in women with pcos causes the symptoms of weight gain, excess acne and reproductive issues. Some of the side effects reported by people are diarrhea, nausea, gas, indegestion and headaches.

Another drug choice is an anti-androgen – androgen is the male hormone produced by ovarian cysts and polycystic syndrome. This excess hormone is the reason for the majority of the PCOS symptoms. It will directly cause infertility, excess acne, weight gain and irregular cycles. Anti-androgens are also used in treatments for prostate cancers and cause a range of side-effects such as constipation, nausea, headaches and decreased sex drive.

What other therapy is effective for ovarian cysts? A therapy you should try is outlined in the book �Natural Ovarian Cyst Relief Secrets�. It�s the one that worked for me when I didn’t want to have the side-effects of drug therapies. How long did I want to take those? If I could get a reliable treatment to shrink the size of my ovarian cysts and have a weapon against them – I would take it! I went down all the research paths and found it last summer. My pain was gone within a few days of starting. After six weeks I went to the doctor’s office for a checkup and new ultrasound – the cysts weren’t on the ultrasound – they were gone! I got rid of my ovarian cysts without surgery or drugs!

Fertility Treatments and Ovarian Cysts

Approximately 10% of all women have polycystic syndrome (PCOS). Ovarian cysts and polycystic syndrome are currenlt the leading cause of infertility. Ovaries of women with PCOS produce an excess of androgen (male hormone). The ovulation process is disrupted through this excess of male hormone.

The current treatments for infertility due to PCOS stimulate the female hormones, causing the body to increase ovulation. This increased ovulation increases the chances for getting pregnant. Current drug therapies include metformin and clomiphene, both studied extensively and found to increase ovulation, but found to not increase pregnancy rates or live-births in women studied. It would seem that ovulations produced by these drugs are not equal to natural cycles.

These treatments only increase other hormones, not decrease the effects of PCOS. The effect on the body is tremendous – think of your body with a normal hormonal level. Your body with PCOS will add in the male hormones. Now add in an excess of female hormones – double or triple the normal. How would that effect your personality or your state of wellness? Is the medically acceptable treatment only covering up the problem?

The correct treatment would decrease PCOS, allowing the body to resume natural ovulation. The correct treatment should not be an increase of hormones along with the additional side effects. Why doesn’t your doctor elimiate the problem instead of adding side effects? With your PCOS eliminated, your body can resume natural ovulation and your fertility can return to normal. Treat the problem, not the side effects.

The correct treatment is here now. Reducing and eliminating ovarian cysts and the symptoms of PCOS. Discover how women worldwide are relieving the constant pain of ovarian cysts. Shrinking them within 3 days and eliminating within 8 weeks. Getting back to their normal fertility cycles – all without ever using risky drugs or resorting to surgery – guaranteed!
