A member asked:
Can a 5 cm ovarian cyst resolve itself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: If the cyst is simple and 5cm in size, then yes - good chance it may go away on it's own. Larger than 7cm, and it is much much less likely that it can resolve on it's own. A follow-up sonogram in 6 weeks can tell if it is going away.
