Question 4

are septated cysts on ur ovary something to worry about?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes: Septation is a broadly defined term: anything seen inside the cyst that is thin and divides the cyst.  Irregular, thick septations or ones that have nodules would be more worrisome.  Age matters.  Not so worrisome in younger patients.  Most septations are just cyst walls representing multiple adjacent benign simple cysts or a dilated tube.

Question 5

what are the risk of a 9mm cyst on your ovary rupchering

Accepted Answer

Nothing: Women get 18-20 mm cysts every month so they can get pregnant.  After menopause an enlarging cyst would worry the md because there shouldnt be any stimulation of cysts after menopause.  My advice is to watch it with ultrasounds and doppler flow.
