I have a 7cm ovarian cyst (tumor markers negative) and i feel no pain. i took contraceptives for a month and it shrunk by 0.8cm. can i fly?

Yes: An ovarian cyst is not a contraindication to commercial flight. However, do follow your doctor's advice about follow-up care. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine, if you are under 27 years of age.
