a good friend of mine has had a lot of problems recently with an ovarian cyst. it got a lot bigger than it should have and she should have gone for surgery to have it removed, however because of certain situations at the time she decided not to. it since decreased in size but is still present.
she's been late to come on her period this month, and has had a lot of unprotected sex as of late. so she did a pregnancy test and it came up positive, so she did another one and that was also positive. she then called her gynocologist (she sees a private guy about this cyst) as he said to her thewre was a chance she wouldnt be able to have children. he called her in straight the way and said it was probably the cyst that was releasing the pregnancy hormone (hcg), and that she would come on her period soon, and he was pretty adament about the fact that she is nearly infertile.
I dont understand how a cyst could release the pregnancy hormone, how it could get there without her being pregnant? now she came on her period the day after she saw him, and i've told her to wait til she comes off sagain and do another test, as neither of us really believe whats going on.
How on earth would the pregnancy hormone be in her sytem without her being pregnant? i know it can happen, but would a regular ovarian cyst honestly contain that particular hormone?
anyone have any knowledge of this? thanks
