A member asked:
I have had a 10cm ovarian cyst for about eight years. i went to er and was told the cyst was now 6cm. and leaking. what now?

Depends: If it is a simple cyst and not bleeding, just pain management and observation. If it is bleeding or a complex cyst, you will need surgery. Since it has been observed for 10 years without intervention, it is most likely a simple serous cyst. Best wishes.
