Cure Ovarian Cysts

Hi, I have always had normal paps, including one I had a few months ago. However, I have been getting uterine/ovarian twinges a few times a day throughout the month (not just before ovulation) and someone suggested it might be cysts. If you’ve been diagnosed with cysts, how did they find them at first? Was it through an abnormal pap, or some other way? Thank you!

I went for a normal checkup to the gyno and she saw them with the sonar.
