Ovaries: Cysts and related issues [General Discussion]

Jonathan Edwards9 said:I usually have pretty regular cycles—like 28 or 29 days—but ever since I got back from vacation this summer, everything’s gone totally haywire... honestly, I can't even remember the last time my period was late. At 30 DC and 35 DC, I took pregnancy tests that came back negative, so I called my OB immediately. She squeezed me in right away and an ultrasound showed a clear cyst. Since I hadn't been in for a checkup in four months (including my Pap smear, which was all good), she put me on Duphaston for 10 days—which I just finished—to help regulate things and ease the PMS. She also mentioned Eve's drops... I already picked those up; they're bitter, but not too bad. Now I'm just wondering which evening primrose oil is worth getting... are those ones from CVS even any good?????
Sorry for the novel here, just wanted to give you the full story since you asked what the issue was... anyway, I've only had one ovarian cyst before, and that was ages ago.
Are those Vitex capsules basically the same thing as Eve's drops????
Yeah, they're essentially the same thing.
I don't know how you handle pills, and I haven't tried the ones from CVS myself, but I think some girls mentioned that the Solgar ones have twice the dosage of Natural Wealth. I believe people here said the CVS brands are fine to take.😉
