Medium-sized: It is larger than normal, physiologic cysts that develop every month and may be a cause of pain. That size, if simple cyst- should resolve spontaneously (there is a high chance it will go away on it's own, and not require surgery).

Ovarian cyst: No. At that small size, it is still most likely a physiologic cyst.
