Dr. John Berryman answered

Complex ovarian cyst: Any complex ovarian cyst needs to have a biopsy, as a precaution against the cyst components being cancerous. The blood test will not be enough to confirm the diagnosis. This can be done by laparoscopy, which will require only a brief hospital stay.
