Ovarian Cyst Research Paper

While some ovarian cysts are harmless, others pose an imminent threat to a woman's health. Therefore, an ovarian cyst's treatment varies dramatically, depending on individual circumstances. In most cases, these types of cysts are functional, developing at the end of a woman's menstrual cycle. They typically clear up on their own, usually after eggs in the cyst have been released into the fallopian tubes.
However, some types of cysts may block the blood supply to the ovaries, continue growing or contain cancerous cells. In these cases, immediate ovarian cysts treatment is necessary in order to prevent negative health consequences. Other than traditional treatment options, some women opt for alternative treatments, including:
• Antioxidant
supplements
• Herbs, such as blue cohosh
• Homeopathics, including plant and animal extracts
• Special diets with little or no red meat.
These alternative ovarian cyst treatment options may reduce symptoms and prevent cysts from growing further. However, they won't cure ovarian types of cysts. Researchers have yet to discover the effectiveness of alternative ovarian cysts treatment. It's important to seek the proper medical attention for an official diagnosis and treatment for these types of cysts.
Diet

Two dietary factors fuel ovarian cysts: estrogen-laden foods and high carbohydrate consumption. High estrogen production (and ingestion of estrogen rich foods) feed cysts. High carb consumption leads to weight gain, and the storage of estrogen in fat cells. Enlarged fat cells lead to high estrogen storage. High estrogen promotes ovarian cysts that don’t dissolve normally. High carb consumption affects prostaglandin hormones, which lead to cyst fluid retention/swelling and the pain response. All endocrine hormones are affected and thrown off balance by excess insulin. If you have ovarian cysts it’s high time to get serious about living on a low carb diet.

Cut down or eliminate estrogen rich foods: tomatoes, non-organic red meat and dairy products. Take lycopene gel caps to capture the antioxidant benefits of tomatoes.

Avoid alcohol, which is a cancer risk all by itself. Avoid iron supplements unless your doctor tells you take iron to correct anemia. Cancer cells feed on iron, which is one of the prime reasons we are told to cut down on iron-rich red meat.
If you have ovarian cysts or fibrocystic disease have your iodine level taken and take an iodine supplement.
A large percentage of us have an iodine deficiency and cysts are one of the symptoms." "Started taking a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar in a pint of water (large tumbler) in the hope it would help with both an ovarian cyst and a fibroid. I like to take it a sip at a time and the drink usually lasts me all evening.

Ovarian cyst "disappeared" within three weeks of taking (not sure if it would have gone on it's own but my consultant was pretty surprised to see it had disappeared at my follow-up appointment). Also my bloated stomach has become much flatter and less flabby!

Have continued taking ACV in the hope it will also lessen the size of the fibroid I have, although since taking it I am experiencing cramps in the area that my fibroid is in. I am persevering with it for now in the hope that the slight cramping feeling is due to the area being "detoxed". Am also experiencing a slight "heavy" feeling in my legs - but nothing too uncomfortable.
Consider taking birth control pills, which have been shown to reduce the chances of new cysts and of ovarian cancer. You may have to try a few different types of birth control before you find a pill that works for
you.
