Can Adderall Cause Cysts In The Uterus Or On The Ovaries?

Can Adderall cause cysts in the Uterous or on the ovaries? Couple years ago in I believe 2012 or 13 I had 25 cysts removed from my uterous. Also had a couple cysts on my ovaries but doctor left them because they were only a couple and were small. I had been on Adderall for about 10 years at that time. We lost our insurance shortly after that. I couldn t afford meds. any more. It s now 2015. I ve gone without the Adderall since then. I just went back on the adderall about 5 weeks ago when we finally retained insurance again. I just came from the emergency yesterday due to intense cramping from my pelvic area on up to the area where my ovaries are. They did an ultra-sound. They said I have a couple of cysts again in my uterous and still only a couple small cysts on my ovaries. They want me to get an OBGYN and get a PAP because the emergency room doctor saw unusual red around, what she called the burn area of the, I think she said my cervix. Do you think the Adderall caused and or agitated the situation. Sorry for such a long message. :)

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the Adderall is a mixture of Amphetamine and other CNS stimulants used in various clinical conditions as ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorders) and others. The adderall is associated with number of side effects as:
- Nausea, abdomen fullness
- Insomnia
- Headache
- Decreased appetite
- Weight loss
- Emotional lability
- Depression

However, it is not documented that consumption of Adderall is associated with development of ovarian cyst in any form.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
