Question 1

is 4.8 cm ovarian cyst is too big?

Accepted Answer

Ovarian cyst: No. At that small size, it is still most likely a physiologic cyst.

Question 2

what helps the pain in 3 ovarian cysts. two are 5cm and 1 is close to 8 cm.

Accepted Answer

Surgery: Unfortunately ovarian cysts that are larger than 5 cms will most likely need surgery.  Torsion is also a more concerning risk

Question 3

how big is 4.8 cm x 3.5 cm ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

4.8 cm x 3.5 cm: It is a medium sized cyst overall.

Question 4

i have a 4.7 cm ovarian cyst, very painful! it was found two years ago at 3 cm. should i have this removed? what is the procedure to remove it?

Accepted Answer

Yes: removal may be needed if it is getting bigger, causes ongoing severe pain and disturbs your life, please seek help from a gynecologist for specific diagnosis and treatment

Question 5

is a 3.4 cm ovarian cyst big?

Accepted Answer

A little big: Around ovulation, the follicle measures around 2 cm, so this is a little bigger. It's not so big, though, that it can't be watched. It will likely resolve on its own.

Question 6

is a 6 cm simple ovarian cyst something to worry about? 25. my said its benign filled with fluid. she said it will go away on its own. it causes me pain though. should i get a second opinion? i read online this is too big for a simple cyst?

Accepted Answer

: If your (GYN) physician has seen the imaging study and the cyst is a simple one (without complex echogenic structure within) the 6 cm cyst will eventually resolve spontaneously, and may take a followup imaging study if the pain persists. With a less than 10 cm cyst with no internal echo structure, a biopsy is not yet indicated.

Question 7

a 4.0 * 3.6 * 2.7 cm ovarian cyst is on m right ovary. how big is that? can it be dangerous during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Quite common: It is quite common to have an ovarian cyst in pregnancy.  Really the only way a cyst can be dangerous to your pregnancy is if it twists on itself (torsion) and requires surgical removal during the pregnancy.  Most cysts that undergo torsion are significantly larger than yours.  If you have no symptoms of pain, i would not worry at this time.  If pain develops talk to you primary ob.

Question 8

i have a 7 x 4.1 cm complex ovarian cyst. i also just started my menstrual cycle two days ago. it is very dark at times, heavy and painful. ?

Accepted Answer

Endometriosis: That is obviously not normal. It could be an endometrioma (endometriosis cyst). Obviously it needs to be followed and evaluated for any signs of cancer and for possible surgery.

Question 9

i have     two complex left ovarian cysts, likely hemorrhagic and  they want to do another ultrasound a month later? how big is 33 x 32 x 30?

Accepted Answer

Not that big: I assume you are giving me measurements in millimeters.   0varian cysts can range in size from 15mm to more than 200mm.  Follow up US is the appropriate management for presumed hemorrhagic cysts...they usually resolve.

Question 10

7.7x7.7x5.8 cm ovarian cyst that is predominantly anechoic with a single septation. what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Simple Cyst: Although in healthy reproductive aged women, ovarian cysts usually are less than 5cm in diameter, if it is a little bigger (like yours), it is probably nothing to worry about.  Every month, you form an ovarian cyst where the egg develops.  After fertilization or menses, the cyst usually goes away.  You should follow up in about 30-60 days for another evaluation.
