Endometrioma treatment options

Hi all,

I had a scan today to check on a cyst which was picked up on scan six weeks ago. It was a private scan done by a doctor who is convinced it is an endometrioma. I have already had a hysterectomy due to endo/adenomyosis. I only have one ovary left - and the cyst is there.

It was smaller than the last time - only 3cm (six weeks ago it was almost 4cm). He thinks it has ruptured and that the fluid has irritated my pelvis (I am hugely bloated).

I’m in a lot of pain and feel really run down.

Does anyone know of treatment options? Is it too small for surgery? Are there any non surgical options? This would be my third lap in 18 months so not sure I really want an op... but am equally desperate to do something!

The dr who did the scan didn’t discuss options... only that my gynae would be in touch.
