I have 4 living children and 1 miscarriage. Children's ages 10 6 3 and 2. When I had my last two children they told me I had cyst on my ovaries. I have not had insurance for 2 years so I have not had that looked at. When I get my period it is extremely heavy with heavy cramps plus an intense pain in my bottom left stomach. Could this be a cyst? The pain is every month without fail. I do not take birth control and have not had my tubes tied. I'm worried about the severity of the pain and that it only happens when I get my period every month on the first.
