Yes safe: Laparoscopy is a very safe procedure , will go home on the same day after the procedure , relatively painless, no incision scar, done even in children if indicated , speak to your doctor.

You might need it.: The doctors can't really know what kind of cyst it is unless they see it. That's why laparoscopy might be needed here. Having said this it's important to understand that ovarian cysts are common and very few are malignant. Depending on how you found out, and the fact that you're young, you might not do anything at this point, but if it's painful or you're worried, get it removed. Good luck.
