Which type of test is safe to check for a cyst if i may be pregnant?

Cyst evaluation: Ultrasound is usually ideal, since it is very sensitive for fluid collections and doesn't involve any ionizing radiation that could harm the fetus.

Ultrasound: Most cysts can be diagnosed with physical exam by an experienced healthcare provider. If more information is needed, an ultrasound is a non-invasive test and provides a lot of information about the anatomy and the type of cyst. Ultrasounds are safe in pregnancy.
