Castor Oil Pack

I rubbed castor oil on my lower abdomen then placed a piece of plastic over my abdomen then used a padded heating pad on low for about a month to dissolve a cyst on my ovary. A castor pack will work as well. But do not use during your cycle.
Apple Cider Vinegar, Blackstrap Molasses
Posted by Mama To Many (Tennessee) on 07/25/2016
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.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Thank You! I have been suffering from ovarian pain since 2007 it is now almost 2012. I have been to the doctor more than five times concerning my pain and each time I was brushed off. Finally, of all people, a male nurse practitioner had me get an ultrasound. Sure enough I was suffering from ovarian cysts. Once I knew what was wrong with me it only took me a few days to find this site and I am so GLAD! It hurt so bad I didn't know if what I was dealing with was terminal. I have been taking TURMERIC, APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, MOLASSES, ALOE JUICE, BEETS and some other supplements for other ailments such as CHAMOMILE, OMEGA 3, B6, AND FENUGREEK. I can't believe I have only been taking the Apple Cider Vinegar for a few days and the shooting pain has subsided. After four years of continuous aches and pains!
Apple Cider Vinegar Douche

vaginal bleeding GONE!
I have had vaginal bleeding for almost a year. It started out after intercourse and then after a BM. The past few months I had more bleeding days than non bleeding days each month. My pap was normal and my thyriod testes were fine. The doctor wasn't sure if she saw a cyst during the vaginal exam, but wanted to wait for the pap results. After much researching and thinking, I tried a strong vinegar douche. Half vinegar half water, three times the first week and once a week for a few weeks after that. I have not had any vaginal bleeding since!!! Something I read online mentioned drinking vinegar to balance your system, vinegar is used on the cervix during colonoscopies, vinegar is in over the counter douches (although not stong enough), vinegar is an anti-fungal and a disinfectant. I don't see how it could hurt and it completely took care of my problem! Hope it works for anyone who may have this problem too!

Hi there. Hope it works for you as well.
The dosage:
1 spoon of Apple Cider Vinegar and 1 spoon of molasses. Mix together on a 4 to 5oz of warm water, early in the morning on empty stomach. The same dosage before going to bed every night.
3 Echinacea pills, plus 2 Dong Quai pills. Up to 3 times a day.
I did this for a 3 week period without missing any dosage.
Note: if you are taking any blood thinner, need to take precautions with the Dong Quai. And if you are suffering from cancer as well. Try to reduce or eliminate the consumption of aspirin. Stop taking Dong Quai during your menstrual cycle. If you are pregnant, consult your doctor first.
Till this day, year 2020, my last ultrasound showed no signs of ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids, thank God! I try to do this treatment at leat 3 times a year.
SSKI Iodine

I had many ovarian cysts over a 10 year period. Towards the end of that period they occasionally burst with many hours of excruciating pain. I had tried many things homeopathy and Chinese medicine which helped but did not cure. Then an acquaintance suggested I check out Dr. Jonathan Wrights website and forum on SSKI iodine/ iodide supplement & ovarian cysts. Following his protocol for approximately 6 weeks my orange sized ovary returned to normal size and I have never had an issue since. That was 6 years ago! I also did some hypnotherapy around my ovary issues at that time. Good luck!

I don't know if it will work for that, but I do know that there are so many benefits for ACV that you should do it regardless. It helps with insulin resistance, cysts, dandruff, teeth whitening, and a whole lot more. Even if it doesn't work for your specific cysts, which I fully believe it will, it's worth it for overall health. :)

A very big thanks to all women who posted their story and to earth clinic for this wonderful site. Mama to Many I will always ask God to bless you.
The last time I asked a question was in March 2014 when I was almost due for delivery but the ovarian cyst was 16cm and my gyn was bent on surgery. I continued taking apple cider, beet root and molasses. Later, she asked me to go for MRI, surprisingly, nothing was found. My son was successfully delivered vaginally in April.
Today, I am completely free from ovarian cyst and my 3rd baby on the way (16 weeks). I give all glory to God.

My name is Hawa from Makeni Sierra Leone. For the past two years, I've had excruciating period pains, pain in the hip, legs and severe abdominal pain before and during my menses, I also felt a huge bump in my stomach. I went to see a gyny and was diagnosed with huge fibroid and huge cysts. The Dr. wanted to immediately book me for surgery but I refused believing God that I will have a natural cure to my ailment. I started searching the internet and luckily came across this site on 22nd October 2013 and Immediately I started taking Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar 3 times a day and behold, I have just had my first period after taking the concoction and I did not feel any pain. I even only noticed it when I went to use the ladies. I have also noticed that the bump I use to feel in my stomach is reducing. I have to go for another ultra sound on 22nd December 2013 and hope by the grace of God I would be completely free from this bondage. I want to say thank you to the person/s managing this web site and I want to say to every one that it is working for me.

Hello. I just wanted to share with you guys my experience with this tonic. I put all the ingredients of this mixture together and drank it one night after looking through the forum for kidney stone remedies. I woke up in the middle of the night with the worst most violent case of diarrhea and I was feverish and shivering and felt like I emptied the entire contents of my stomach that night. It was the most bizarre thing ever but I remember the pain I felt in my abdominal areas (especially the right where my kidney stone was discovered)was relieved! This was a couple of months ago but it was such an intense experience that I was too frightened to do it again. Now I'm having strange vibrating sounds and pain in my left side going down into my ovary and I'm thinking of doing the same concoction again to see if it could help. I'm extremely bloated, look like I'm pregnant. Theres a feeling of uncomfortable bloated-ness in my stomach and theres these vibrations going down to my left ovary. Does anyone know what this might be??

I found out that I have bilateral ovarian cysts after getting a CT scan to see if kidney stones had returned. I researched online and began a whole foods diet with no sugars (other than what is found in fruits) and no white flour. I also began using iodine on my skin once in the morning and once at night as iodine deficiency was said on one sight to be a factor in cyst development. I also began drinking Echinacea tea two to three times daily as it is supposed to regulate hormones. Most importantly, I prayed, prayed, prayed that this would quickly be over! Today, one and a half weeks after my CT scan, I'm told that both cysts are shrinking significantly (by half or more). I'm praising God! :)

Alkaline Water

Hi all,
I've been diagnosed with a 3.2 cm left ovarian cyst last October and did a lot of research. I tried apple cider vinegar and blackstrap molasses since then. I drink these twice a day. I also changed my diet to something alkaline. I had my 2nd ultrasound just recently and my cyst is all gone. I am so happy and thankful for the people who shared this very helpful information. I hope more women will benefit from this.

Apple Cider Vinegar, Blackstrap Molasses

★★★☆☆BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
After learning of my having a small ovarian cyst (first one, I'm 45yrs old), I found a remedy to help shrink it. Apple cider vinegar and unsulphered black strap molassas 1 T each in hot water as a tea twice a day. I've been at it for at least 1 month. Since then the dull ache has gone. I feel great but the hot flashes/night sweats I've had over the past 8 months to a year have increased and now no period for the last 2 months. Has anyone ever found acv/molassas tea to cause a cessation of menstration ? Perhaps it's just my body doing it's thing regardless of the tea :) I go back to my doctor in a few weeks and will follow up on the cyst, but am curious if you think there could be a connection ?! ?! ? Thanks

To shrink my giant ovarian cyst, I started taking ACV (apple cider vinegar) & BSM (blackstrap molasses) on July 27th, 2012 by using the recipe from EarthClinic.
For over one year, I was taking megace to try to reverse my uterine cancer (stage one), which went back to being just endometrial-hyperplasia-atypical-complex (aka Just Barely Pre-cancerous). All my doctors wanted me to get a hysterectomy; hence, they all refused to prescribe megace for me. Hence, I had to buy without prescription. I spent over $1, 000 USD on megace [I gave up trying to convince my doctors.]
In July I ran out of funds and can no longer buy megace on my own. I noticed I was bleeding with some blood clumps, again. I knew any progress I made with megace was being pushed back because I wasn't taking megace anymore.
After taking ACV & BSM, I noticed I had less bleeding (and gained tons of energy! ) In late September 2012, I added Iodine (from Kelp) as an energy booster. I noticed that my bleeding stopped COMPLETELY (and my severe bleeding chapped lips healed! I had been visiting a dermotologist for this very problem for over 18 months.).
According to my latest pelvis ultrasound and uterine biopsy, ACV & BSM did not shrink my ovarian cyst but I am completely free of uterine-cancer! In fact, I am told I have no "hyperplasia or malignancy"!!!
What ACV, BSM, & Iodine did in a little over two months exceeds that of megace!! I CANNOT believe this!! I am sharing my account because I owe to all of you who so generously shared your challenges and triumphs.
If you have any clues why my ovarian cyst seems to have gotten bigger (21 x 11. 8 x 20. 4 cm), please post your answer -- so everyone can read it! THANK YOU!

The Recipe To Rid The Body Of Ovarian Cyst
Prepare a mixture of 5lb pre cooked beets, 2 lbs of carrots, half a bottle of non alcoholic wine and 2 jars of molasses, by juicing them all together. Take one shot glass before a meal, three times a day for 15 days and then continue with the rest of the batch twice daily, once before breakfast and once before dinner. You will probably find that your cycle is heavy for the first couple of days. Also no alcohol must be consumed during this period. Women who tried this mix found their cysts disappeared within a few weeks.

I drank the beetroot juice concoction for about 2 months... Drank apple cider vinegar for about 3 months... And we still drink alkaline water. I'm happy to report that I am 4 weeks pregnant! I'm scheduled to undergo a scan next week and I'll also find out what happened to those cysts... Apparently they were no longer a hindrance to conception -- so I'm really glad! I'm curious to find out if they have shrunk or disappeared and will update again after next week! Thanks again for these natural remedies to eliminate cysts! They must work-- because the cysts were causing fertility problems for me and I'm pregnant now!
Green Tea

I have an ovarian cyst that gets better when I drink green tea; it also helps greatly with cramps and other period issues. I only drink loose leaf green tea, and I make it by using one tablespoon in 1 1/2 cups water, at a hot but not boiling temperature, and steep for five minutes. It makes a strong cup, so you might want to steep it for a shorter period of time. I make at least two cups a day initially, but you can reduce it when your symptoms subside.

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.

Hello all, I am hopeful that the next post I do will be good news only, about a month ago my scan result showed small cyst n small fibroid. I got apple cider vinegar and black strap molasses. I didn't take it religiously, I did another scan yesterday, no fibroid but the cyst is now 14cm x 7cm. I don't want a surgery, have started my apple cider vineger and hope for shrinking asap by God's grace.

Its been interesting to read on ovarian cysts as I suffer from one..... after having 2 surgeries... can call it mental trauma... and physical one. I have been diagonsed again with 7 cm which I am sure has increased as have not got ultrasound done last 2 years due the fact I'm scared. Now I have met someone who loves me to core and I feel I have a reason to live and survive this... I am glad to have found this website and the hope it gives me is immense... I will be buying Apple Cider Vinegar and Blackstrap Molasses on 26th dec.. and start doing it... Have read all the 3 pages dedicated on ovarian cysts and I am glad for the people who have escaped the surgery and beaten this thing... And for those who have not please do not loose hope.. Even tho its hard and harsh. As I read it by someone who posted when we are ready we find the way... So I believe god has shown me this website with some purpose... And I am negative in nature but I will make positive changes... And I will heal. God bless everyone who struggles with endometrosis and ovarian cysts... I am dealing with one...

Dear Gloria,
Castor oil has helped me very much to get rid of ovarian cysts and relieve pain.
Using a castor oil pack overnight helps will pain and promotes sleep.
You might also try adding beets and blackstrap molasses to your diet for the nutrients. They are both good for cysts.

Dear Bmathew,
You might want to look into castor oil packs for your ovarian cyst. I have had great success with that.
When I was 37 I was told that the only fallopian tube I had (lost other to rupture) was blocked and that I would not be able to have children anymore but have had children since then. I didn't even do anything to treat that.
Don't lose heart. Keep reading! There are many natural things you can try. :)
