Have you had an ovarian cyst (not the PCOS kind)? I've had a dull aching in my lower left abdomen area for 7 days. Last night it began throbbing. The pain is bearable, but bothersome. The throbbing continued today and I went to my gyn. She suspects I have an ovarian cyst and is performing an ultrasound tomorrow to confirm. However, she said there isn't really anything they can do if it is an ovarian cyst besides let it resolve on its own in a week or two. She does not anticipate that it is one of the small number of cysts that require surgical removal.

Does anyone have experience with this? Do I just have to wait it out?
