Complex ovarian cyst: Can go over optionssimple ovarian cyst is a clear fluid filled cyst as opposed to a complex cyst that can have debris like blood or divisions in it. In women over fifty, that can be worrisome for any cancer. In younger women cancer would be very unlikely. Many times these will resolve on their own without surgery.

Not simply water: Ovarian cysts come in different flavors. The simple ovarian cyst usually contains a water like substance and not internal echoes on ultrasound . Complex cysts may have blood on the inside called hemorrhagic cyst. With time, the blood degenerates and fibrin may be inside. The septa are occasionally cell walls or may be thickened or very thin. To be complete, cancers can be cystic. yours like blood.
