My story goes as follows...Ashley I have been there! My story goes as follows: I went in for an annual checkup and a "mass" was found on my left ovary. An Ultrasound and a cat scan later I was told it was a dermoid cyst (solid cyst with greasy stuff and possibly hair or teeth. Ew). There was hope that they could remove it but during surgery that proved impossible so the ovary was removed as well. They also asked my husband for permission to explore the other side to make sure things were good there. Luckily they were. The scar is low and has faded so much that I don't really notice it anymore. All 4 of my children came after that surgery with no extra difficulty. 5 years later they found another dermoid on the other ovary. That one was able to be removed without taking the remaining ovary. <br />Just wanted you to know that it sucks for a few weeks but then life moves forward. <br />Sorry for the long comment. Your story sounds a lot like mine. Good luck to you!Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08299623171760912782noreply@blogger.com
