He says with IVF they can do the egg retrieval even if I have a cyst then freeze the eggs and transfer when the cyst is gone. Which means surgery again to remove the cyst. I don't know if I can go through another surgery. This is so hard on my body. I am praying that the cysts will not come back. We are going to take a few months off and try naturally. Maybe with the cyst gone we'll get preggers. Good luck to you and yes we need to keep in touch.

Erin, unfortantly cysts are so very common. And I too get them... I actually had one on rt ovary and did not know it until a work related accident happened last week and went to the doctor and he said that the impact from the fall had ruptured the cyst. Typically, I don't feel them but when they rupture it hurts like MAD... When I was going through my 1st IVF cycle I had a cyst that they removed during the ER. And it seemed to stay away for a little bit.

I understand the surgery stuff especially the mulitple ones...
Please take time and heal! Have fun for the next few months with DH (if you know what I mean)!

Hopefully, you will not need the aid of a RE, but if you do, you will be just fine!

Us AR girls and the other ladies on here will help you through the process when you are ready to jump in the IVF world...
