My daughter is 2 months away from being 12. She has a dark ring around her neck. It is not dirt. The doctor said it could be she has cyst on her ovaries or diabetes. Could she really have cyst on her ovaries at such a young age. And yes she has periods.
Hi there! Thank you for contacting us. If she has frequent need for Chat Doctor.  However, there is a good chance she has a cyst on her ovaries. These cysts get larger to expel an egg. Once an egg is expelled, there shouldn't be any other side effects. If you wanted to know for sure, ask for an ultrasound or imaging of her ovaries. I hope this helps. I've have been riddled with ovarian cysts for many years. Many ruptured and are extremely painful. This all can be managed.
