So Honeys had ovary cysts for a few months, I did take her to the vets and they drained it and then told me to have her spayed but i didnt want to risk that operation.

So I left her, She was fine. Except for the loss of her hair. I got her a friend and they live in the shed in a indoor cage.
Last week before i went to visit my nan, she weighed 1kg. I got back yesterday and noticed her pelvic bones were sticking out, so i picked her up and her cysts/gas/lumps, have gone. Obviously I'm soo pleased! She's absolutely fine, but like will she be alright? If the cysts burst inside her? I'm going to order some more GG stuff to bathe her in , how can i get her hair to grow back? And i weighed her and she now weighs 800g, should i give her extra food?

Ahhhh , help please :)
 
Don't panic. Cystic ovaries are very common. Sometimes they do burst, no problem, the cyst fluid is absorbed by the body. The hairloss is associated with hormonal imbalance. It should grow back. As you say, just make sure she has plenty of food.
 
Would the vet not consider hormone injections at all? That would deal with the cysts and the hair loss.
