Wait and see: See what the ultrasound shows. An enlarged ovary can be many things, but most notably a cancer or other abnormal finding like an ovarian cyst. Make sure you follow up with your physician.

Usually cyclic cyst: The most common reason for fullness in the right adnexae for someone your age would be a cyclic cyst that is part of your menstrual cycle. These cyst usually rupture when the ovary releases an egg in mid cycle. Other things to consider are infection, endometriosis, ectopic pregnancy, and tumor. If you are otherwise free of symptoms if might well disappear by the time you get the sono.
