Polycythemia is a condition in which there is a net increase in the total circulating erythrocyte (red blood cell) mass of the body. Primary polycythemia occurs when excess erythrocytes are produced as a result of a proliferative abnormality of the bone marrow.

Hello everyone,
Well I went to my infertility doctor yesterday to start my Clomid. When the performed the ultrasound they saw a cyst that was 3 cm round. They said it looked as if I had 3 ovaries. (Yes I'm upset :(
They did some blood workup to see what's gong on. We are all hoping that everything is fine so I can start the Clomid.
Has anyone else had this problem?

i have cysts and they used to give me loads of pain. I used to take loads of painkillers and lived my life on the sofa with a hot water bottle! Try buying some Serralone- it comes from the enzymes that silk worms use to break out of their coccoon, and is used for women with breast cysts. Just started taking mine last week and already the pain is hardly there, can feel them inflamed but the pain is gone!

I developed even MORE cysts while taking Clomid. I did 3 rounds and they finally did an u/s to find that my ovary was 4 times the normal size. Be very careful if they do start you on Clomid and demand an u/s with each visit to make sure things aren't getting too bad. I am now back in BCP to try to control the cysts. I've been in severe pain for the past month or so. Good luck!

My last Dr apt they found a cyst on my ovaries that was about 4cm I believe. They said I only has a tiny bit of ovary that wasn't covered by the cyst. I've had a couple things done and been put on Glucophage so far but I've just been going for about a month and a half over this. So we're still in the initial beginning stages of the treatments. Best of luck though. Try the glucophage (metformin) it's supposed to help shrink the cysts. Worth a shot....

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
