What are the danger signs of an ovarian cyst, when is it considered an emergency?

Severe pain: An ovarian cyst becomes an emergency when it becomes twisted around its blood supply. This is called an ovarian torsion. Symptoms mimic appendicitis - severe pain, nausea, vomitting, abdomen tender to touch, pain with walking.
