A member asked:
Ovarian simple cyst identified on ultrasound has increased in size from 7 to 9 cm in 4 months. pelvic pain present. do benign cysts increase in size?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: they can, they all start off tiny. Even if they are benign, if they get very large they may cause symptoms based on their size alone, and may have to be removed. Speak with your doctor, yours is getting fairly big.
