Dermoid Ovarian Cyst Remedies
Am trying to find a cure for a Dermoid Ovarian cyst as most of the posts refer to the fluid filled Ovarian Cysts that have symptoms and are painful. I have no symptoms or pain. I have just been diagnosed by ultra sound with a 10x6x4cm cyst that would have been growing for many years.
For the past 20 years (from one week after I stopped breastfeeding my youngest after being continuously pregnant and breastfeeding for 8 years straight) my body has shown signs of hormone imbalance but all the blood tests come back normal or opposite to what they expect. I was very physically fit at the time and always went back to 52Kg after each birth.
Within one week after stopping breastfeeding, I began putting on weight (30Kg in 28 weeks) as well as many other hormonal changes including height growth. Exercise or anything that increased my metabolic rate increased the weight and increased the rate at which my body and its functions deteriorated.
22 years later, the hormonal imbalance result has been detected by the finding of the dermoid ovarian cyst in my left ovary. The recent blood tests still show normal range for hormones and no cancer indicators.
Ovarian cyst cures are mentioned online with a great success rate but are mainly referring to the fluid filled cysts that can come and go.
I would like to find out if the same treatment for the fluid filled ovarian cysts would eradicate the dermoid cyst which usually consists of hard tissue. If not, what would dissolve the dermoid cyst. Trying not to have left ovary surgically removed and researching so that I do not activate the growth of the cyst.
Would then be able to use some of the remedies to put my body into an alkaline state to prevent future cysts occurring and for good health and hormone balance.
Two weeks ago began taking borax (5ml of a borax solution - 6g borax/L) each night. Skin sores that have not healed for months are now healing.
Hoping for some advise and cure.

MargyG: There is one word that describes the super hero who comes to everybody's rescue during dire circumstances saponins. 70% of the body is water. The best nutrient of all would be the one that makes water better. Saponins make water better. Saponins clean every system, carry more nutrients into the cells, and contain steroidal hormones for the adrenals. A 70 year old Christian who loves God is a master herbalist. He lives with his lovely wife of fifty years on a ranch in Arizona. He takes jiaogulan, a herb that has 100 saponins. Chinese centenarians take jiaogulan. American centenarians eat beans, the food highest in saponins. Red Korean ginseng has thirty four saponins. Yucca liquid is highest in saponins. Eat raw organic and grass fed whole foods and take saponins.

Dietary Changes
★★★★★
For many years I have suffer from extremely painful periods and all of the usual symptoms, bloating, water retention, upset stomach, etc. etc. About a month ago I had an ultrasound and it was confirmed I had ovarian cyst on both ovaries, the one on the left one was big, I don't know the exact size. Anyway I came home with a Dr's prescription for a medication that was supposed to help ease the symptoms and shrink the cysts, but after reading the side effects (cases of high levels of acidosis on some women) I decided not to take the medicine. On the last 5 to 6 weeks I've drastically change my diet to a High vegetable intake all trhoughout the day, veggie juice in the morning, veggies in my eggs, high fiber cereal, home made gazpacho at least a couple of days a week, fish, chicken and lots of veggies for dinner, I switched from regular milk to almond milk, low fat yogurt (in moderation) nuts such as almonds and sunflower seeds for snacking. No red meat, no fast food, pizza, fried chicken,sugar,bad carbohidrate, soda and specially coffe. Lots of water with some lemon juice and a hint of baking soda. I also did the beet/molasses drink twice a day for two weeks. Today I'm on my second day of my period, and haven had to take a single pain killer, no bloatting, or upset stomach, just mild cramps like it should always be, I'm taking herbal teas for comfort and easing symptoms. I'm so thrilled about it, (I don't look pregnant anymmore), I've lost over 5 lbs. and feel very calm and light. I will continue following this natural approach, and continue educating myself, I'm not sure if the cysts will ever go away, but the symptoms are definately not the same anymore. I'm going to get another ultrasound in a few months and then I'll be able to see if there has been a change on size and amount of the cyst, maybe they'll be gone! Good luck to everyone, and thank you to all the people that have provided valuable information to this subject.

Have you tried switching from regular yogurt to soy or a coconut based yogurt instead? You can find them at WholeFoods or possibly an organic store. Cutting out the dairy in your diet really would help. There is a downside. These types of yogurt cost twice as much and can be harder to find. It will also take your taste buds some time to adapt, but the rewards are definently worth it. You feel better. You really do.

I do NOT recommend using any soy products. An imbalance of the estrogen in your system leads to ovarian cysts and soy is a mass producer of estrogen. Dairy should be used in moderation and organic as much as possible as it contains estrogen as well.
Estrogen blockers like brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage are awesome to implement to lower your estrogen levels.

Dietary Changes, Apple Cider Vinegar
★★★★☆
In February of 2011, while having my period, I fainted on my job and was taken to hospital by ambulance. After many tests and scans they discovered an ovarian cyst, and discharged me from hospital, before my next appointment I had my period and this time it was heavier than anyone can imagine. After my fiance found me on the floor unconcious, he took me to my Dr.who sent me to the emergency room where Dr.said I needed surgery. I was so worried I knew there was something else that could be done naturally, so I desperately surfed the internet, for months.
I put off my wedding and dedicated some serious time into finding a remedy other than surgery-that's when I came across this website and the apple cider vinegar remedy. Stopped eating red meat, fastfoods, chocolates, dairy products, animal fats, sugar, caffeine, sodas and breads made with white flour. I started drinking 100% juices and green tea and 180 ounces of water daily, eating lots of vegetables, fruits and boiled foods, prunes, nuts and beans.
I tried the apple cider vinegar in my water and juices twice daily, and I also douche twice daily with strong vinegar and water, and I must say it's been three weeks and I feel and look much better. My stomach is much flatter and I can now sleep on my stomach at night, no more heavy bleeding or pains.
I am so glad I came across this site. My cyst was the size of a cantaloupe I could have actually felt it in my stomach, this remedy along with praying in faith and believing God for my healing is truly working. I didn't show up for my surgery but I rescheduled an ultrasound and I will keep you ladies posted on my results. I truly believe my cyst has shrunk, and I believe in these remedies and my God.

I have been reading alot about Apple Cider Vinegar helping with ovarian cyst, but I'm still a little confused on how to take it. If someone could help me with this I would really appreciate it. I'm 23 years old and was told that I had PCOS at the age of 17. It would be really nice to get rid of them so I could regulate my menstrual cycles and have a family of my own in the near future. My husband and I have been married for 5 years and would like to start trying to get pregnant without this problem. I need the amount, how and how many times a day I should drink acv. Thanx

I have had 3 MRIs over the last 2 years to monitor a large fibroid (see other posts). The first scan also showed the presence of a chocolate cyst and a functional cyst. Since changing my diet to control the symptoms of the fibroid, both cysts have disappeared.
In addition to becoming a vegetarian, I regularly drink ACV (2 tbsp/day with baking soda water) and take vitex agnus castus (chasteberry) capsules (4 mg). 6 months after the first MRI, the cysts were not visible. 19 months later, the latest MRI has shown no sign of any cysts.

I have had irregular cycle since last year and was diagnosed with a 3.5cm ovarian cyst 8 weeks ago. Doctor says to just watch and wait as cysts usually resolve on its own.
I made dietary changes by eliminating caffeine, dairy products, refined carbs and red meat. I occasionally indulge on bread and sweets but I always go back to whole food diet. I also take 1 Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon of unsulfured blackstrap molasses every morning on an empty stomach. I take multi vitamins everyday and evening primrose oil. I also do castor oil pack 2-3x a week.
In a nutshell, I aim to keep my body alkaline by choosing alkaline food and drinks. If I cheated on a day by eating meat or muffin, I compensate it by taking a cup of water baking soda or lemon juice (no sugar) to alkalize.
Today, my follow-up ultrasound showed I have no cyst, just a few follicles that are ignoreable. My period is still irregular but I hope that resolving the cyst will at least kickstart a more regular cycle. Hope this helps.

Your remedies sound good! Thanks! And for fast relief from cyst pain, you may also want to try castor oil packs with moist heat added (remember to wear old clothes you don't care too much about, and cover your castor oil pack with plastic to help keep your clothes and bedding from getting soaked and stained - if you prefer instant clean up afterwards try a bit of baking soda to cut the oil from your skin) Castor oil is wonderful to penetrate through hurting tissues and repair them gently!
Best wishes!
Dim, Flaxseed, Chckweed
In addition to this, she suggested I take either ground flaxseeds or psyllium husks daily or on a regular basis in order to flush the system and keep things moving. She said that this is a big help with ovarian cysts.
I can say that a 'complex' cyst that was found back in December had found to be decreased in size in March, and just last week was no longer there. Although I am now also using a Chickweed tincture (as recommended by Susan S. Weed) because I wanted to shrink this cyst, the DIM and vitex are what was in use at the time of this 'shrinking' cyst. So that is promising.
But...they did discover I have a 'new' cyst. And my issue may not be about shrinking them as they come and go, but... How to keep them from recurring. And I believe that perhaps a large part of my issue has to do with stress. I have had my share (haven't we all) as I am also recovering from Adrenal Fatigue.
I looked up 'stress' and 'cysts' online and found a few interesting articles... Of course we all know what stress can do. I believe that this was a big dot to connect as I can pinpoint major stress events and what followed, though it's not a perfect pattern. Just a thought to throw out there. There is so much mystery surrounding ovarian cysts it's really very unfair.

Dear Bluesky777,
I would not rule out that Vetiver would be helpful for cysts, but I have not found any research to support its use for cysts.
Heritage Essential Oils sells a blend for ovarian cysts that contains frankincense, geranium and cypress. So, geranium and cypress might be worth a try.
However, my first choice would be frankincense since I have seen it work first hand in my family for cysts. I had an ovarian cyst that felt like an egg. (I could feel it from the outside! ) I used frankincense and castor oil on it and by the time I went for an ultrasound a couple of weeks later, that cysts was dramatically reduced.
So, castor oil alone may be an effective and inexpensive treatment for ovarian cysts. (Since Frankincense is more expensive and not as easy to find as castor oil.) I put it on a cloth over the ovary area, covered it with plastic wrap and then put a heating pad over that area over my bedclothes and slept that way for several hours each night. (Heating pad needs to be on the lowest setting.) Castor oil should not be used during menstruation, though. I was using frankincense on the area each morning. So, I can't say for sure which contributed more to healing.

Foods to Avoid
Starting on 08/04/2013, I began to live primarily on fresh vegetable juice that I make myself and a small amount of legumes [beans, lentils, tofu, and yuba]*. Initially, I started out with juicing 6 red beets, celery, and limes daily. Immediately I was encouraged by how I felt – besides more energy, I literally felt my giant ovarian contracting and softened. All of these feelings were short-lived; soon I felt my waist was expanding. I persisted and on 08/12/2013, I began adding 10-15 glasses of fresh carrot juice PLUS parsley and green apples while decreasing the numbers of beets to 2 – 3 daily. Yet, my ovarian cyst seemed to have hardened, and I felt bloated all the time. I am not giving up this routine, and a few days ago I began drinking apple cider vinegar (2 tablespoons), black strap molasses (1 tablespoon), and cayenne (. 25 to. 5 teaspoon) three times a day.
The fact of the matter is, according to my measuring tape, my waist increased from 33.5” to 35” since 08/04/2013.
What's going on? Am I just going through a phase [aka shock]?
*I have completely stopped taking all forms of sugar [except for green apples which Ted approves], salt, oil [except for small amount of coconut oil], dairy, meat, animal-proteins, gluten, flour, all the food banned by Ted.

It could be possible that the tofu is the cause of your tumour increasing. Soy is reputed to increase tumour growth, therefore not recommended if you have tumours, I found it helpful to cut out soy products when treating my fibroids.

Hi Pri,
When reading your statement I can see myself it it. I have been through a surgery to remove an large ovarian cyst in my right ovary 6 years ago and in 2013 I went for an ultrasound and discovered that I have several cysts in my left ovary. I didn't want to go through surgery again and the doctor prescribed me contraceptive pills but I couldn't see any change in my status
I did not do an ultrasound at all in 2014 and now on 2015 I decided to overcome my fear and did a check up and it turns out that now I have only one large cyst of 8cmx7cm and the doctors is telling me to remove it by surgery as it will not shrink. I don't want to go through surgery again, I am scared! I want to try everything possible way to shrink it. Please keep me updated with what happened to your cyst. I started taking Apple Cider Vinegar and molasses but I was not regular. Now I decided to fight this cysts as I would be grateful if some of you can give me hope if you found a large cyst of 8 cm shrink. Thank you

Cynthia,
Food grade H2O2 works like magic. My wife had very bad ovarian cysts when I first met her. It was so bad that she could not even have a period for over three years. Thankfully, I was an alternative health guy and had her take H2O2 . Drop 4 to 5 drops of H2O2 in an 8 ounce glass of water. The water has to be either distilled or completely purified, or RO water. Otherwise the extra oxygen will unite with the contaminants and you will lose the H2O2. Drink in the morning on empty stomach. Start once or twice a day, then increase to 3 to 4 times. or you can increase the drops from 5 to up to 8 drops. Google food grade hydrogen peroxide 35%. but don't ever use 35% always diluted it to about 3 %. Good luck

Kal_el, I just read your post replying to Cynthia on 2/22/15 re: H202 for dissolving ovarian cysts. You said you introduced it to your wife because she had a severe problem with ovarian cysts. I would like to know did H202 rid your wife of her cysts. I too suffer from repeated ovarian cysts. I presently have one that is huge and the doctor wants to surgically remove it.
Please share with me how long I should take H202 and if your wife is cysts free now. Thanks for your post and I will await your reply.

Hi All! I was taking blackstrap molasses (2 tbl spoons) apple cider vinegar (1 tbl spoon) in glass of warm water, morning & night for 2 months but discontinued later due to travel. Though I continued with some yoga & exactly after 5 months my ovarian cysts have disappeared.
I truly trust the blackstrap molasses & apple cider vinegar & I'm planning to take it on alternate days even though my cysts have gone.
We need to wait to see the effect. Best wishes to all......

You could be having the cysts due to the tubes being tied, I have a close friend who got hers tied and apparently its a common side affect, She ended up getting a historectomy( sorry for the spelling)... You need to get on some iodine, bentonite clay (the edible kind, not aztec clay) and change your diet. Raw milk is a must if you can get some do it. EAT MEAT, Our bodies need good fats and I would suggest taking some dandelion root tincture, you can get that at a healthfood store, also take apple cider vinegar and blackstrap molasses in the milk, for this you take 1 cup Organic or Raw, preferrably raw milk, blend with 1 Tablespoon of Unsulphered blackstrap molasses and drink, immediately after take 1 tablespoon of Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, abvoid chocolate and caffeine and I would suggest getting on some good magnesium oil as well, spray onto the bottoms of your feet before bedtime, one to two sprays is sufficient, it will make your feet itch so I suggest getting a lava stone or something to scrub the dead skin off with. Also get on a good multivitamin and make sure your eating PLENTY of DARK LEAFY GREENS, try to eat most of your food raw, of course not meat but you know what I mean, raw fruits and veggies. Hope this helps! You should also go see a Naturopath in your area, they will be able to do much much more

Heat Application

My question is when the cyst bursts or tears, other than the pain, is a relief of breathing felt? When my three babies were born the water leaking was instant relief. I currently feel in the last month of pregnancy, like I am carrying a 6 pound baby; I felt worse in the last 18 months, like sometimes I am carrying our 10 pound son. Do women experience heavy periods with clots or does the cyst dissolve slowly into bowel movements?
I look forward to reading more posts about the science and the process of healing, especially I want to know about maintaining cyst-free. I thought different times in the last 9 months since the removal of my IUD that I was cyst free. I juice fasted for a total of more than 70 days, in 7-10 day periods and felt relief. I am proactive with a 80% raw and 100% vegan diet. I supplement with herbs, warm teas, and iodine. Does anyone have experience with deep tissue massage, could I penetrate the cyst and poop it myself? I hope... What about acupuncture, acupressure? Thanks for your time and consideration.
