Can ovarian cysts cause abdominal pain?
Some functional ovarian cysts have no symptoms and are discovered, if at all, during routine pelvic exams. Others can cause symptoms, including changes in the menstrual cycle, including shorter or longer periods, skipped periods, and/or spotting between periods, pelvic pain or ache, especially during sexual intercourse or at the start or finish of menstruation, feelings of nausea or queasiness or breast tenderness. Although I have had tender breasts, I’m not sure that ovarian cysts would cause heart pains, especially sharp stabbing pains. This does not sound normal. I would recommend that based on what you wrote that you consult with your doctor/gynaecologist for further evaluation or go to your nearest ER department for assistance.
