I m 26yrs old nd yet I haven't any issue

And had miscarriage in June, after that I diagnose by hemorrhagic cyst in my left overy 2.5cm, then should I take Apple Cider Vinegar?

Any side effects of it in childbearing year

Pls suggest the right thing I'm getting very tns.

Dear Shilpi,

I have used apple cider vinegar all through conception, pregnancy and breastfeeding with no problems at all.

I would use a tablespoon or two throughout the day. Just a capful of it into each glass of water I drank.

Does ACV and BSM aid in ovulation? I have PCOS but ovulation is my main issue.

ACV and blackstrap don't cause ovulation to start. They feed the body so it will work better. Taking them may improve your health and allow ovulation to happen.

Also, look into hormone balancing herbs, borax, and a good diet. (Though not a diet high in animal products. Too many competing hormones, even in organic meats.)

Hi,

I hope someone reads this. Last month I went to the emergency room in agony and was told that my ovary was twisted, he seemed to assume I knew about it, well in any case today I went to a Gynecologist who informed me that it is the size of an"ORANGE".

Well I had been to see him four yrs ago and apparently he told me about the cysts, yet didn't say, "I want to keep an eye on these, see you in 3 months" or whatever, so now they want to perform a complete hysterectomy,

Also, I'm 70 yrs old and have never had an operation, I am petrified, do you think that the ACV and Molasses would help me?

While I was still having a period I never had cramps, they could boil me in oil and I would start every 28 days, so this really came out of left field,

I hope someone reads this, hugs Lillian

Dear Lillian,

I have used castor oil and frankincense for ovarian cysts with success.

One time I had a cyst that I could feel through my abdomen and used castor oil and frankincense. I was on vacation. By the time I got home and could get in for an ultrasound the cyst had all but gone.

I used Hopewell Frankincense essential oil. I massaged it onto the abdomen where the cyst was several times a day. I used castor oil packs at night. I would put castor oil onto a square of flannel or t-shirt (fold it over several times so that you end up with 6x6 square of several layers.) Over that I placed plastic wrap. Leggings would keep it in place over night. I would use a heating pad over that on the lowest setting. (But if you are heat sensitive, only use that for 30 minutes and then remove it.) Alternately, you could use a hot water bottle or a warm rice sock. The heat helps to drive the castor oil in.

I used the castor oil every night. Sometimes I would also massage castor oil into the area during the day as well.

You could try the Apple Cider Vinegar and blackstrap, also. I use them for many things but have not used them for cysts.

Please let me know how it goes. I hope that you can avoid surgery.

~Mama to Many~

Hi Lillian -

Further to Mama to Many's excellent suggestions (castor oil packs are great for so many things), I found an article about a woman who was able to take care of her own cyst to avoid surgery.

It might be worth a read for some general ideas. But – like in all things – everyone is different.

https://www.thefurtherist.com/self-care/how-i-got-rid-of-an-ovarian-cyst-in-3-months

She linked to an article about one of the supplements she was taking N-acetylcysteine (NAC).

You may want to read the comments at the end of the page from other women who have cysts. Some used the author's protocol and others made changes with varying results.

If you are able, it might be a good idea to get a second opinion from a functional doctor. They have a tendency to look at the bigger picture and use alternative protocols.

Take care - I wish you the best of luck!

It is likely your body is slowly adjusting you to perimenopause and eventually menopause. My cycles started reducing in days after I hit 36. I went from 9 days to 7. Then 7 to 5. By the age 40, I was down to 3. I was officially menopause ar 46.

i have a question for Chrissy from Farmindale...

Did you had to discontinue your regular meals and start on fruits and veggies alone with healthy food in order to have the fibroids and syst shrink? I'm asking because im taking the Apple Cider Vinegar and blackstrap molassess but I'm still eating regular but I do my combination of beets, carrots, cucumber, ginger and tumeric juicing every morning to drink after I drink the Apple Cider Vinegar and bs molasses. Please tell me your step by step plan daily.

Gud day maam, I just want to ask f how did u take it, is it aftr lunch or before breakfast or aftr dinner instead? thus, mollasses an apple cider vinegar be tke one at a time? i really appreciate if u response me back, thnk you so much for sharing ur testimony, Godbless!

Dear Manisha,

A typical dose of blackstrap molasses is 1 Tablespoon per day. With the apple cider vinegar, 1-3 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water once or twice a day.

For the pelvic pain I would try castor oil packs. They always work for me, and quickly. I like to use them overnight. You are not supposed to use them during your period, though.

~Mama to Many~

May I just ask, is it safe to take apple cidar vinegar with honey? I'm 2 weeks pregnant with Endometrial cyst in left part. size 6.40cm

Dear Worried Girl,

I have taken apple cider vinegar with honey before, during and after pregnancy. For most people it is not a problem unless perhaps you have diabetes in pregnancy and need to watch your sugar.

~Mama to Many~

Hi, I would like to ask if can I use honey instead of molasses for ovarian cysts? Will it still be effective? I'm from philippines and I have endometriotic cyst and I want to try the ACV home remedies for my cyst.. How important is molasses?

Dear Maegan,

The blackstrap molasses is important for the remedy. But some find that apple cider vinegar alone is enough to cure cysts. You could add honey to sweeten it but I don't think it actually helps the cysts.

Please also try castor oil packs for your cyst. It helped me very much with one a couple of years ago.

~Mama to Many~

Can these remedies get rid of chocolate ovary cysts (ovarian endometriomas)?

Please l need pictures of the apple cider and the molasses for my treatment. Thanks.

What are castor oil packs?

ACV- Not regular applecider vinegar. It should be Raw. The label will have 'With the Mother' on it and it is unfiltered . Regular Apple Cider Vinegar has most of the nutrients stripped out. When using Raw ACV, be sure to shake it vigorously immediately before use.

hi sir

i am 29 year old. i have 5 cm ovarian cysts, can I drink ACV can I suffer stomach pain, when drinking it? If I do not added black molasses as that is rare in myanmar, can I drink ACV with water.

Hey I was told I had a ruptured cyst, I started taking apple cider vinegar one spoon every morning, I need to know how long does it take to dissolve and why do I get slight pains in my ovaries. Any advise?

Dear Aisha,

I don't know how long apple cider vinegar will take to dissolve what remains from the cyst. But many people do use it daily on a long term basis and find it helpful for a multitude of female and other problems.

If you are still having pain, I have found castor oil packs or charcoal poultices to work wonderfully for cyst pain. I use them for a couple of hours or over night. Just do not use a castor oil pack during your period. Charcoal poultices are okay any time.

~Mama to Many~

Dear Shona,

Is the pain in your pelvis and leg a new symptom since your last ultrasound? I am concerned about this because this type of pain can indicate a torsion of a cyst. When I had a torsion, I did have surgery. You can lose part of the ovary with an untreated torsion.

Apple Cider Vinegar and Blackstrap Molasses are both easy and safe things to try. They have helped many with cysts.

I would also add charcoal poultices over the ovary area overnight 4-5 nights a week. They have helped me with cysts and also help the pain.

How to Make a Charcoal Poultice

Please keep us posted on how you are doing.

Hi Tennesse,

I am a silent reader of this site, I had chocolate cyst and got removed 2 yrs ago, started taking acv+bsm for a month with ayurveda medicines now I m 8 weeks preggo, I hav my first ultrasound scan on 24oct/2016, I still use Apple Cider Vinegar once in 2-3 days to help bloating, can I take bsm+acv during my pregnancy, did you totally recover from endo, because I have read and been told that they tend to reccur also I m just 25yrs old, so I m like giving so much thoughts on how am I gonna fight with it till my menopause, I have been on depo, bcps and ayurvedic medicines later, was doing rigorous yoga practise, I somehow want to get freed of endo for the rest of the life, pls share ur experience.

I am also having an ovarian cycst problem. I am 56 years old. I have been having pain in my vagina area when I visited my gyn and did an ultra sound I was told that I have a cyst. I was also sent to do blood test and x ray which I have not yet done. However, I have been trying the apple cider vinegar and the molasses but not on a large scale. My greatest challenge is that it makes me urinate most of the nights so I get little or no sleep. Please give me your advise.

Congrats on the pregnancy! I am glad everything came out good for you, did you get surgery to get an ovary removed or a cyst?

Hello Mama...

Can you tell me if it is normal to be in extreme pain after starting the ACV, Molasses, beets, ginger, lemon, honey for ovarian cysts and uterine fibroids? I can hardly move at this point and I don't want anything to burst and end up in ER...I'm hoping it's just inflammation and taking aloe vera gel straight from the plant will remedy this pain...My thinking is that I need to go slower, perhaps less ingredients too...I just don't feel natural healing should hurt this much.. What are your thoughts?? Thank you very much and God Bless.

Dear Cindy,

I agree that healing should not hurt this much.

I would definitely go slower with the treatment you are pursuing. You might want to just add one new ingredient a week so you know how each suits you.

If severe pain continues or you have other symptoms I would get medical attention. As I mentioned in this thread before, severe pain when you have a cyst could be a torsion. An untreated torsion could affect future fertility.

I hope you feel better soon!

Hello Jessica,

Everything went on well during my pregnancy. I was taking vitex 400mg and bee propolis 1000mg every day till 30 weeks and delivered a healthy baby girl vaginally on may 18th 2017, but my period returned in a month after my delivery, I went through 2 cycles and gonna get mirena iud on july 18th. Hope it puts my endo off, will continue taking acv, Blackstrap Molasses and beets every day.

Hi all,

For all those who used apple cider vinegar and black strap molasses to get rid of your cysts - what types of cysts did you have?

I have a complex cyst (not the cancerous type, but it could turn malignant in the far future), around 3 cm that I've had for at least four years. I've heard that functional cysts are much easier to get rid of than complex ones, so not sure if it's even worth trying this or if I should just give up and have surgery as the doctor recomended.

Good question, I'm not sure if you will get a reply on here, this thread is old. I just came across it because I'm also researching cysts like crazy! I have a 6cm blood-filled cyst on my left ovary. Which could be an endometrioma (aka chocolate cyst), which would be a sign of endometriosis :(( I'm so terrified of that diagnosis. I also want to know if ACV would help a chocolate cyst. My gut feeling is that it wouldn't. Because it's a different type of cyst, that grow on the ovary, or in it, independently of the ovulation follicles. What kind of complex cyst do you have?

Hi Julie,

Well, I am so glad your cyst pain is improved, but very sorry that the menopause symptoms have increased!

I have used ACV and BSM for years and have never had it to cause me to skip cycles. For me, it only seemed to improve my cycles. (I am 46, for the record.) But, everyone is different, so I couldn't promise you that ACV and BSM are the cause.

Black Cohosh might be helpful to your increased menopause symptoms. It is good for hot flashes and night sweats.

Let us know how it goes with the Dr. appointment and if you find something to help your hot flashes. I hope you feel better soon.

~Mama to Many~

Please look up iodine deficiency and ovarian cysts: http://www.newswithviews.com/Howenstine/james37.htm

I have cyst also and it was very painful. But I did notice once I started taking Apple Cider Vinegar the pain subtle also I missed my cycle for 3 months. But I haven't been on ACV for about 3 weeks. I'm thinking its all related. Now the flow has come back with vengeance. I got to head back to the store and get my cider to see if this really works again.

Worked for me. I found out I was pregnant and had a large cyst on my ovary. Went to ER and they said this happens sometimes because the ovary is producing hormones to support the pregnancy. I went home and for a week took a tables poon molasses and chased with juice and acv. After a week I saw the obstetrician and did an ultrasound he was baffled because he couldn't find the cyst. Because I cured it with Blackstrap Molasses and acv.

Green tea can bring back your period. Take it at night after dinner everyday. In the morning continue to take apple cider and blackstrap molasses daily...Good luck....!!!

Dear Priscy,

Do you have fever or bleeding or other symptoms?

I read some of the stories on the ovarian cyst page here at Earth Clinic and a lady named Bethany had a similar experience... You might read that first page of ovarian cysts to read her story.

I don't think the vinegar and molasses would cause a new problem. Perhaps they are causing things to happen too fast in your body. You might try taking a break from them both for a couple of days, then try one or the other and see how you respond.

Charcoal poultices have been used to treat both of your conditions sucessfully and might be helpful to you now while you are having worse symptoms. Charcoal is good at helping with pain and inflammation. If you can get some activate charcoal powder, you can make a poultice to place over your abdomen where you have pain. Charcoal must be wet to work. You would mix ith with water (or with flax seed and water) to make a paste. spread it on a paper towel and cover with another towel. Place on your abdomen and cover with plastic (to keep in the moisture. ) I would do this for an hour twice a day, and even overnight for several days. (To use it to cure cysts and fibroids, you might need to treat for many weeks.)

You can also take charcoal internally - 2 t. in a glass of water.

Try to drink plenty of water or herbal tea as dehydration will make the pain worse.

Please keep us posted on how you are doing. I will be praying for your relief.

~Mama to Many~

Thank you so much. Made some findings from other people that used this concotions. Was told that it could increase the pains in the first few weeks of taking it but will dissapear with time. I am still worried though. Maybe I will go do a scan to know what is happening inside of me cos the pains is much. Hot sensations in my abdomen.

Beginners or each time you eat or drink, like black strap molasses or others like apple cider vinegar, garlic, lemon, ginger, honey, kambucha tea, home made mangosteen puree mix with honey & lemon, many more, all these are natural food......any ache, pain, wind feel like bloated, gastric or any other symptom appear....it's just the process of healing, some call it healing crisis, mistakenly or wrongly stated side effects.....so not to worry, just continue for few days or week, you will feel the different.. Cheers!!

Sand 2 Pearl: hurray on your success from what could have been a deadly disease!!! And thank you for posting and sharing your success story!!!

Keep a healthy diet and lifestyle going so as to find no recurrence.

Thank you for sharing your testimony. Can you tell us in what concentrations and how often you took the BSM, ACV and Iodine? Did you take them together? It's been over two years since your post. How are you feeling now? Has your endometrial hyperplasia atypia complex returned?

Hi Pearl. Has the ACV and BSM drink helped a lot in maintaining the Endometrial Hyperplasia Atypical Complex? I was also into Megace but was asked by my doctor to stop it coz it greatly thinned the uterus lining. Want to try this drink as a substitute for Megace. Please respond soon. Thanks!

Julie, cut down on your dosages.

It could be that you are having a cleansing reaction- sometimes called die off. There could be parisites or candida in your GI tract, just stick to a strict diet with very little sugar ect... Keep up the good work!

What Julie from Wharton NJ is experiencing is because of iron and Magnesium (Mg) content of blackstrap molasses. Every individual has different dose that would work for them & whenever in little excess, it will cause gargling sounds and lose bowel movements with or without mild cramps. This is because Mg increases gut motility and that's why its used as a treatment for constipation (Milk of Magnesia).
Just cutting down on dose a little will solve this issue as rightfully advised by someone here before.

My name is Cynthia from Lagos Nigeria. I have a 5.7 right ovarian cyst. I started taking Apple Cider Vinegar and Mollasses for one month now and continued experiencing severe pains so I decided to go for a scan last week and the scan shows that I now have a 5.2 left ovarian cyst as well and the right one has increased to 6.4. I don't know if its the Apple Cider and Mollasess I took that increased it or not. Someone should please advice me on what to do next. I cannot withstand the pains any longer.

Cynthia, I am in the same boat as you. My ovarian cyst did not shrink after two months of ACV & BSM. In fact, it seems to have grown (21 x 11.8 x 20.4 cm).

[However, ACV & BSM (& Iodine from Kelp) healed me of uterine cancer COMPLETELY.]

To Cynthia in Nigeria:

Hello Cynthia why not tryin to make an ice cubes from herbs juices, squeeze leaves or grated garlic in aloe vera juice. U try it. And use it as ur vag suppository. Make an ice cubes and push it inside of u and place a pillow at ur pelvis part below and chill for 20 mins to 2 hours if u can. I already tried Moringa leaf but u got to strain it. Try yogurt as well it has good bacterias in it. Make an ice cubes insert it at bedtime or in the morning after u pee or during boring time. May u be healed completely. BB Sam and Mami

Cynthia & Joe and anyone else who found their cyst size increased after taking blackstrap molasses (BSM) & ACV, would you kindly share if by any chance you have a concurrent thyroid problem such as low or high thyroid. Also if you are taking any meds and eating too many cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage etc?
I am asking this b'coz female with ovarian cysts often have thyroid problems too. That is the basic reason behind molasses working for ovarian cysts. Beside iron and many minerals, BSM is rich in naturally occurring iodine. Many studies today has proven that ovarian epithelium has receptors for thyroid hormone and ovarian stroma is richest organ in iodine second only to thyroid. That is why in case of iodine deficiency not just thyroid but ovaries are also effected resulting in multiple cysts.
Here are few facts about relationship between thyroid, ovaries & iodine:

Iodine is concentrated at high levels in the ovaries via the NIS symporter.

Iodine deficiency is strongly correlated with ovarian cysts and may also be related to ovarian
cancer.

• Flechas states that the greater the iodine deficiency, the more ovarian cysts a woman produces, resulting in the extreme form known as polycystic ovarian disease.
• Howenstine asserts that Iodine therapy can reduce or eliminate ovarian cysts.
• Slebodzinski states that iodine concentration in the ovary is higher than in every other organs except the thyroid. The ovarian iodide uptake varies with sexual activities, is enhanced by estrogens and a hypothyroid state and blocked by goitrogens.
• Escobar investigated the effect of various levels of iodine intake on thyroid hormones in different tissues in the rat. They discovered that, under conditions of iodine deficiency, the concentration of T3 in the ovary was much higher than in the blood or most other tissues.

For someone with medical background or just a curious mind who wants to know more, plz explore these few links:

http://iodineresearch.com/ovaries.html
and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3355884/

I am a researcher myself and would like to know from any of you ladies if you have been diagnosed or have symptoms of any thyroid problems (hypo or hyperthyroidism etc).

To: Rahoz re: Cynthia and Joe's comment

Rahoz, I hope you are still part of this site. I just read your reply of 2014. I have a history of developing ovarian cysts since 1990s. I have, unfortunately, had five ovarian cysts surgically removed over the years. Initially, I was told by my OB/GYN that he thought I might have PCOS but he was not sure. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in the 1990s. I never knew why these cysts developed and grew rapidly. Of course, my doctors' only remedy was surgery. I have always taken Synthyroid for my thyroid condition. I also eat cruciferous vegetables, which I was not aware I should not be eating. I developed Ovarian Cancer too in this huge cyst that I have now.

Rahoz, I would like to take the ACV and molases but I am afraid of my cyst growing and the cancer cells growing because of the sugar in the molases. I want to come up with a plan to prevent my body from developing these cysts.

Do you have any suggestions? Thanks very much for your assistance and I will await your reply.

Hi could you please tell me how to take the Apple Cider Vinegar with the blackstrap molasses please.

This mixture of Organic ACV and Blackstrap Molasses should be taken in an 8 ounce glass of water or juice. It does work.

Did you approve this with your doctor first? Also, what size was your cyst. I found out at 5 weeks pregnant that I have a cyst on my right ovary. Waiting for results tomorrow, but I am already looking for remedies.

Kemmy from Lagos,

Please where did you get apple cider vinegar with molasses to buy in Nigeria? Cheers

Would like to ask Kemmy from Nigeria how large was the cyst on her ovary? How many times a day did she drink the cider and molasses, and in what quantities? Was this before meals or after meals? Would appreciate a reply?

Does any body know if taking Apple Cider Vinegar while pregnant is safe or not. My girl friend is pregnant and has a large cyst. She is in constnat pain and I am trying to help find solution for her, which is very limited because she is pregnant.

I consumed ACV throughout my pregnancy. Mostly in first trimester. It did no harm! She arrived fullterm and healthy!

Hello Helpneeded from Alexandria, Va... In my experience apple cider vinegar is REALLY Good to take when you are pregnant... When I was pregnant with my son I had really bad morning sickness and ACV helped alot.

I think it's perfectly safe to take ACV while pregnant.

It's not a whole lot different than having dressing on a salad. And since using salad dressing isn't discouraged during pregnancy, I don't see why a couple of tablespoons of ACV per day would hurt anything.

I have been going to so many doctors and paying out the pocket to be told they don't know what's wrong with me. My husband ended up in the hospital so I decided to try one more time and had a CT scan done it turns out I have a 4 centimeter cyst on my left ovary. This runs through all my sisters> I guess I got it late. Well anyway is it possible the cysts caould have been mistaken for something else? Because my doctors thought I was just fat. Would it be possible to sue them for compensastion on all the bull they put me hrough? Now I have to follow up with yet another doctor to find out what we should do next. I am at least relieved to know what had been wrong with me this entire time. Although, I am highly ticked that the doctors were making me pay so much out of pocket because I didn't have insurance. And by out of pocket I mean a couple $$$$thousand $$$$ and all it took was an emergency room visit and to many people asking when was I due because I look like I am 7 months pregnant from the abdominal swelling.

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR WITH MOLASSES FOR OVARIAN CYST. Pls kemmy, can you direct me on how to get the above. Am in Lagos Nigeria and has been diagonized with 5.1cm ovarian cyst. Going through so much pain. Waiting for your response. Thanks

Can get apple cider vinegar in ebay. Also molasses- make sure the molasses is eatable and not the plant fertilizer.

I have been dealing with ovarian cysts for ten years now. I am in terrible pain one day out of the month to the point of total bed rest. Some months I have no pain. I have taken herbs that help. I am curious about this apple cider vinegar and molasses recipe, I have both items in my pantry cupboard and am ready to start mixing them to make my own remedy. My entire right side hurts daily and I am hot all the time. I thought I was going through menopause early but after reading this blog I see it may be the cysts. I had a cyst that was the size of a golf ball pass a few years ago just before surgery. I want to cure this myself if it is possible. L

Apple Cider Vinegar can be bought at vitacost. Com, also Organic Apple Cider Vinegar is a very good natural brand that I trust. They also sell lots of other vitamins that are awesome! I Love the Garden of Life vitamins, they even have a prenatal. I have a 5.1 ovarian cyst, but I used the vinegar for some gallstones, and Ialso did a gallstone cleanse at the same time, will continue with 1 teaspoon with a glass of water. Drinking before a meal helps a lot and does not hurt my stomach. Prayers to each for a miracle healing.

Apple Cider Vinegar / Molasses for Ovarian Cysts- No one knows exactly why or how it works, but anecdotal evidence supports the use of apple cider vinegar to help shrink and dissolve ovarian cysts. According to Dr. John Christopher, a potassium deficiency may be the cause of cyst formation, and changing your eating habits to consume more potassium may be helpful. Apple cider vinegar is high in potassium, and this may be one of the reasons it is helpful in the treatment of ovarian cysts. Christopher recommends taking apple cider vinegar along with several other herbs such as burdock root, chaparral, cayenne, yellow dock, mullein and plantain.

The People's Pharmacy Guide to Home and Herbal Remedies also mentions use of apple cider vinegar for the treatment of cysts. Mix 1 to 2 tablespoons of vinegar with 1 tablespoon of black strap molasses and 8 ounces of warm water. Drink one or two glasses daily to help shrink the cyst. It may also help relieve stomach bloating associated with the cyst. Consult a natural health practitioner for additional guidelines concerning the use of apple cider vinegar.
