Q: 4.2cm complex ovarian cyst, likely hemorrhagic, and with small amount of free fluid. what would this mean? chance of cancer?

: Not unusual at your age. Probably just what they said. A BENIGN hemorrhagic cyst. Chance of cancer very low unless you have a high familial risk or certain syndromes. Definitely follow with your Gyne to ensure it behaves like a benign cyst
