Ruptured ovarian cyst & no treatment. What happens?

IVF Expert asked:


Based on symptoms, I believe I had a ruptured ovarian cyst a few days ago (severe abdominal pain that radiated down to may legs). Within a few hours, the pain began to subside and within 2 days I no longer feel anything but a bit of tenderness.

Because we were away on vacation, I didn’t seek medical help… I have an appointment to see a doctor tomorrow, but I wanted to know if it is possible that I have caused damage by not going sooner.

Additionally, if it was a ruptured ovarian cyst, will it still be detectable by ultrasound?

I have been able to do everything these past few days, including lifting my toddler, housework, etc.
I can do a search for links & I can figure out that I can ask the doctor… Seriously. Only answer if you have some sort of knowledge…
It turned out to be a hemorrhagic corpus luteum. Just needs to be watched, but should go away on its own.
