A member asked:

Can an echogenic ovarian cyst go away?

Dr. Dennis Higginbotham answered

Specializes in American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Yes: An echogenic ovarian cyst may be due to blood clot in the cyst. That will almost always resolve on its own. If it does not resolve it will probably require surgical removal.
