Is there a way to actually pop an ovarian cyst?

My doctor already surgically removed one that grew to the size of a golf ball (had to take almost the whole ovary with it due to damage) and they found another cyst on the remaining ovary recently.

They refuse to give me any sort of treatment, even if it grows to a dangerous size, they said they don't want to do anything about it because they think I gave it to myself. Plus they think I'm too young (almost 22) to have these kinds of issues and that's another reason why they are refusing any treatment.

To answer any questions; my body doesn't react to birth control, which I know sounds odd or even fake, but it doesn't effect me. I've also researched it and I don't think I want to risk myself for cancer.

How can I pop it since I don't seem to have the legal right to get it removed no matter what kinds of problems it can bring me? Would giving myself PID help or a lot of physical exercise do anything to make it rupture? Popping it myself is the only way I can get medical treatment for this thing and it's already past the size of a grape.

My doctors encouraged it but didn't tell me how I could force it.

I got my ears pierced at Claire's (not my choice; my foster mom had me get it done where it was cheap and "classier than a tattoo parlor") maybe 5 years ago.

Every time I put in ear rings, I end up getting pus and swelling the next day if not a few hours later.

I soak the ear rings in rubbing alcohol for a while beforehand (sometimes over-night) and clean off my ears with rubbing alcohol right before I put them in and they still get infected.

Any suggestions? Thank you!

I checked around and I still can't figure out where it came from and what it is. Could someone please explain. I have other friends who are curious about this too. Thank you!

Does anyone happen to know anything about Medicaid? I really need to go in for an ultrasound to see why I have to much pain on the left ovary/incision asap, but I don't know if I make an appt to pay it out of pocket if they'll try sticking the medicaid bill on me too when medicaid should have covered it. They want me to pay for the surgery because medicaid didn't want to, but I need an ultrasound to see if any cysts or infections have grown. Would I be able to pay for the ultrasound out of pocket and end up getting stuck with the bill, or should I stlil be okay?

Someone please help me out here. I am in so much pain and I need to get this treated right away but I cannot afford to get 3k's worth of bills over my head if it was medicaid's bill in the first place. My school doesn't know and medicaid specialists won't talk to me.

I've been friends with this guy since we were both about 7. We lost contact for a while and ran into each other again in college (quite literally with me almost crushing him with a TV media work study delivery) a year or so ago. We caught up, hung out a bit, and then I had to get surgery to remove a cyst and part of my girl plumbing. Some time in (maybe two or three weeks after the surgery), he told me that "the feelings never stopped" (my only guess is the little elementary school crush he had on me when he met) and then disowned me the day after saying this. He claims it was temporary, but that was maybe two months ago.

I know I need to be patient and I am, but I'm just worried he'll end up never talking to me again. He also said the reason why he has issues with talking to girls is because he's worried about getting attached to someone in the Metro Denver when he plans to go to CU Boulder soon.

Is there any way to guess on how long he plans to ignore me? I don't know how well he can do that if he happens to live close enough by to where we cross paths at least once a week. Anyway, is there a way to come close to guessing how long it'll be? I don't plan on manipulating him back: that'd only prolong the ignoring. Oh! I did end up making 3 new BFF's, but would that effect how long this'll be if it might look like he got replaced when he didn't?

Thanks to anyone who can help me!

I'm not sure how far to go back, but I bought a cleansing quartz a few days ago. I was always taught to keep it by your bedside to channel your energy into it, so I did and today was day two. I'm not sure if this had an effect on the dream or not, but I'm throwing it out there just in case.

Anyway, I had a dream moments before I woke up this morning. It was very brief and kind of sad in my opinion. I was coming home, and it was more of a home I've always wanted kind of home, but I came home and on my couch my pet owl was sitting on the armrest napping. He was an adult northern spotted owl, maybe a year or two old. I whispered his name so as to not startle him awake. I either called him Freckles or Spotty, but he responded. He woke up and started flapping his wings as though he was happy to see me like a dog would when wagging their tail. the sad part here is that my alarm clock went off at that moment.

Was this little guy my guide? I've come to loving owls a while ago and but I almost never dream and this is the first time I've ever had a dream of an owl. Are guides (if that what this is) specific to an individual or are they rounded to the species in general? What I mean is, could any owl species hold the title as my guide or is it this specific one names Freckles?

Does the original Kindle fire have any means of external memory? I've heard it doesn't do SD card or USB flash drives. Is that true and if so, what option could it have for external memory?

I've heard some people say it does and some say it doesn't, but nobody is willing to let me look at theirs or touch their baby (the KFire obviously). If not, would I be able to at least access google docs via wifi and an app?

If I can master making them, I'm thinking about making some for my friends.

I know certain amounts of charms like this stand for different things so how many for a sign of friendship?

The plot of a short story I'm working on a germaphobe gets into a car accident, since it's an old car it'll take a while, only got a small cut but refuses to go to a doctor because of his phobia. He rides the bus since he doesn't have any friends to carpool with. He sees an elderly woman get sick of pneumonia (vomiting blood) with her 20ish year old grandson getting an ambulance.

Over time, he makes friends with the grandson out of concern for the woman since she reminds the main guy of his mom (died of a staph infection which started his paranoia). I am planning on having him at least recognize his fear more-so than to have him be a new person.

Should the grandson catch pneumonia and should he survive or die or should the main character get an infection in the cut he got from the accident because he was too afraid to acknowledge it and get a doctor's help?

I just want to know if it degrades your credibility as a writer if you have an account but want to take publishing seriously. I've heard stories where you run a chance of getting recognized, but I want to actually try and get my name out there and not pull that card that someone will find me when a pro would go out hunting and earning their own fame. Just curious.

I am writing a short story and I need to know how long a car can stay in an auto shop like what the longest amount of time is and why. I don't know enough about cars to reference from experience, so I need something that'd keep my main character without a car for a good 3 or 4 days if possible. If that's an unrealistic length of time, please let me know and I'll use something else, thank you!

For the remaining classes of my fiction writing course, we have to write about 3 short stories. Last time, we did an exercise to come up with 3 story ideas and one is preferably the first short story we turn in. I plan to do these three, but I don't know which one to do first.

One was completely BS-ed at the last minute of a germaphobe witnessing someone on a bus get sick from pneumonia and get rushed to a hospital. It came from a weird dream I had a while back.

The second is a mixed and matched story of my latest medical adventures. I honestly can't think of anything else at the moment.

The third is something like a guy letting a secret crush slip through his fingers when she ends up going with someone else because he never had the courage to say anything. The professor doesn't mind if it's romance as long as it's well written and that it's not sci fi or fantasy.

I can choose another one, but these are the only ones I've got.

We can only write them fresh, so I can't exactly do them all and wait until they're due. I'd rather leave the best one for last so I can have my best skills for the moment to write it in. If I have one that has great potential, I'd rather write it with skill. any and all suggestions would be great, thanks!

I had surgery about 6 weeks ago to remove a cyst and the incisions feel like fresh paper cuts, so they sting all the time and the ovary operated on hurts like the the cyst is still there. My friends mom who is a retired nurse says to wait half a year to get an ultrasound to check for problems and that scar tissue hurts having in general when my OBGYN says that it sounds serious and that I should get an ultrasound to check for a new cyst growing asap.

Is my friend's mom right and this is a trick to scam me out of a 200 dollar ultrasound or should I take my doctor's advise and get one? It's coming out of pocket and that's a third of my income, so I need to make sure it'd be spent wisely.

unfortunately, my orthodonist gave me archwires that were a little too small and it made the crowding worse (probably to scam more money out of my pocket and prolong my treament) and it pushed my canine over to where my first molar should be

after chewing on it like it was a molar, it dulled it down pretty flat

Is there a way i can resharpen it and get it to the size it was before to look like an actual canine and not a flat front tooth? Would changing my diet or the way I crew help?

For one, my dad recently called to say he only has 2 daughters (me being the third/youngest) as his way of disowning me for not being able to have kids and not having a degree yet (i'm 21 but switched my major a year ago and had to start most of my credits over).

Also, my cousin recently said, for similar reasons, that I am a lowlife degrading all the efforts of obtaining women's rights just because I do still have my reproductive organs (which will be removed soon due to problems caused by genetics) and am going to college instead of respecting thaht, as a woman, I won't get anywhere unless I act like a sl*t because of the sexist society we live in (America, CO), I'm the one who inspires her to drink, and that this is why my only purpose for being alive is to absorb bullets if she or someone else gets mad enough at the world.

I expected a lot of this when I started going to college and when I started having the problems with my parts, but I didn't expect my family to be so hateful. I only expected them to just ignore me.

I have been friends with this guy since we were both about 7. We lost touch for a few years and found each other again in college. recently, I not only had surgery to remove some of my girl parts, but have been dealing with family issues of them disowning me (worse than they already have) for needing the surgery.

Recently, he said "I've never stopped having feelings for you, there, I said it" and I can only guess he means the elementary school crush he had when we met. He knows about all the stuff going on, but he said he wants me gone for a while and I have no idea what I did wrong. I'm trying to completely ignore him and allow this to take it's time, but I'm worried that something as permanent as reproductive organs getting removed is going to be just as permanent as this.

Does he hate me for getting the surgery too? How long should I wait until I give up hope. It's been a month without pestering, but I worry I'll get disowned by him too if this goes on.

Thanks to my genetics, my girl parts are falling apart and will probably need to be fully removed before too long. I already got some of one ovary removed and the problem is getting worse. For whatever reason, people either call me a sl*t for it or don't want to be around me since the surgery. As far as I can see, I just lost about 15 ibs from it as the only difference besides getting the scars.

Does going sterile make me unattractive because it's early menopause, or could it be better because it removes any risk of pregnancy scares and gives guys more freedom from protection therefore making me easier (no one would like me if I wasn't).
