Hi there. I understand your concern. Ovarian cysts are a common normal occurrence in the general population. These cysts may signify areas of maturing ovarian follicles containing the egg cells, and may disappear after ovulation. Other benign causes would include focus of endometriosis which may cause pain or abnormal uterine bleeding. Coming to a diagnosis would require close follow up with your doctors and gynecologist. Your doctors may request another ultrasound sometime within your menstrual cycle to monitor this cyst. If there are any suspicious behavior, like enlargement, solidification, or irregular borders. I suggest you discuss these options with your doctors, and hopefully, future tests will turn out OK. Wishing you all the best. Regards and God bless.
