Hi Corky
It is reassuring that you had endometriosis and no evidence of malignant change at surgery. I would assume that the ovarian cysts are either related to ovulation or endometriosis. You should ask your doctor about ovulation suppression such as with birth control pills to help your pain

I just received the actual ultrasound report and it states:
Transabdominal study only performed. Uterus is 9.2 cm in length.
Left ovary contains a 4cm simple cyst.
Right ovary contains a 3.2cm cyst.
Small amount of free fluid in the cul-de-sac is present.
Ap dimension of the endometrial lining is 0.3cm.
Normal arterial perfusion of both ovaries is noted. No evidence of ovarian torsion.
Impression: Bilateral simple ovarian cysts. Small amount of free fluid in the cul-de-sac.
Is this ultrasound report worrisome in light of just having a lap on 4/29 that revealed normal ovaries with no masses? I also had a elevation in the ca125 blood test prior to the surgery and have not had a repeat blood test. My doctor did not feel I needed to repeat the blood test.
Thank you for your help.

Would these "simple" ovarian cysts cause frequent nauseation, pain in the pelvic, hip, and lower back?
Hi There, given your very careful evaluation including a normal laparoscopy in April, simple ovarian cysts are most likely related to ovulation.
Your pain seems more global and makes me wonder about musculo skeletal issues.
With your reassuring gyn evaluation, you could consider a more holistic approach to feeling better
: exercise, nutrition, centering your energy through yoga or meditation.
You should meet with your pcp to check in about your overall health
