A member asked:

Is there a connection between ovarion cysts and colon polyps?

Dr. Reid Blackwelder answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

No: There is no relationship between ovarian cysts and colon polyps, or an increased risk of one over the other. However, both are common enough that they could each occur in the same person.
