Q: is it normal to have a simple ovarian cyst for 2 years? it hasnt gone away but it is 3.9cm?

: If the skilled radiologist is certain that the cyst is benign it can continued to be monitored. However many still advocate removing them to avoid things like rupture, torsion or morphing into a malignancy. Your gynecologist is best to advise you.
