The symptoms you describe can be due to many things. Occasionally, ovarian cysts may cause cramping, irregular spotting or bleeding and bloating. Ovarian cysts can be common in young women. These cysts usually resolve on their own. If the cyst increases in size or causes constant, progressively worse pain, then surgical intervention may be necessary. The best way to accurately measure an ovarian cyst is by doing an ultrasound.

If your urine is changing color and you are having any burning or pain when urinating, you may have a urinary tract infection. Urine should be clear to pale yellow in color, with little to no particles in it. Keep in mind, that some vitamins and foods can change the color and odor of urine. For instance,  B vitamins will make urine appear bright yellow. The “night shade” vegetables ( broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, etc) may cause urine to have a strong odor.

Urine should not be bloody, green or brown. If your urine appears this way, or it you have discomfort with urinating, consult your family doctor. A urinalysis will show if there is any infection, and your doctor would prescribe an antibiotic to treat this.

Continue to follow up with your doctor regarding your ovarian cyst. If you begin to experience constant pain, have a fever, or begin having vomiting or diarrhea, consider going to your local emergency room. Also, make a list of the symptoms that concern you. Keep track of when they occur and anything that may have recently changed (diet, exercise, sleep, stress). Having this list allows you and your family doctor to discuss these concerns more effectively.
