A member asked:

If i do have an ovarian cyst, how is it removed?

It depends: It depends on the type of cyst. If it a follicle (ovulation) cyst it will go away on its own. If it does not go away within a month or two, it may need to be drained or removed, which can be done laparoscopically.

Cyst Rx options: 1.) Oral contraceptive pill hormonal suppression. 2) Laparoscopic aspiration or cystectomy. 3) If the cyst is small, do nothing and wait for Mother Nature to remove by the next menstrual cycle.
