Dr.Q I have a question re cysts with 50mg of clomid

September 07, 2008

I have a 3cm due to 50mg of clomid. My doctor did not give me anything. Can it still go away without birth control? Yesterday I was on cd10 (I usually ovulate on cd12)and had an U/S. The nurse told me that the cyst grew to 3.7cm and have no follicles. Will the cyst keep on growing and when does it usually go away? Does it go with AF or with ovualtion? I am worried that it's going to take a lot of time to go away. Can it still go away before next cycle? I found out about the cyst last cycle after a cycle of clomid, got AF as usual but the cyst is still there!I am waiting to do IUI so this is so frustrating!

Just want to add that I got a +opk (using urine test strips) today. Could it be that I am still ovulating this cycle? Geez!!!!!!!!!!! I am so confused!

Hi Janet,

I also had a cyst while I was taking the gonal f injections. My doctor noticed it when I went in on my cd 3 to start my next cycle. It was the size of a lemon, so it was very big and it was gone within 2 weeks. I'm not sure if you can still ovulate with a cyst but you might be ovulating from the other ovary? Or the cyst may be gone now since it was only 3mm! Good Luck! Sening you loads of babydust :)

Oops sorry! I didnt read your whole post! If you had an ultrasound and there was no follicles you probably got the +opk due to the cyst. But the good news is that they do go away on their own!

Thanks Keller! So does a cyst can give a false +opk?

It could be a false positive given the cyst, but still doens't hurt to BD in case we're all wrong

Dr.Q does the cyst go with ovualtion or its just a matter of time?
