Assalamoalikum. Did u recjeck ultrasound for size of cyst.? For pain relief u can take tab panadol 500 mg after every 8 hrs for two days. However u should rule out other causes like any urine infection which can increase the pain. Then after ultrasound report if your cyst is not reduced then u need removal by surgery or if size is resuced then u have to go for MRI pelvis to see any deep endometriosis. Ur dose is already high.

Please repeat your scan for ovarian endometriosis cyst if enlarging inspite of of taking Higolix for 1 year .I am afraid you have to go for surgical option .you can not take this medicine for long duration. It has side effects may mske your bones weak as it supresses your own hormones .

Yes Visanne tab 2mg daily continuous is also good option. but if cyst size is more then 5 cm or increasing that needs to be removed .if in case you are not going for surgery at least take Visanne daily at same time .

You already took higolax for 1 year .stop it and take only Visanne. Higolax can not be taken for long duration.

Wsalam, thank you so much Dr for your response My cyst has been slightly increased, my urine Dr report is fine Alhamdulilah, but after surgery there is still a chance of recurrence so it's not easy physically mentally financially to get operated again and again

Its all your choice for ur self. These r options from which u can select. If painkillers and little rest relieve ur pain then u can continue. However whenever u feel that u need further treatment then u have choice. Takecare
