Follicle: You might have to have a repeat ultrasound to make sure it's resolved.

Worry not: Of course this deserves observation, follow up and to determine best course of action. But worrying is not the best way to go. See your dr for more details. Best of luck.

No: Normal ovaries produce small follicular cysts that can grow to 2 cm in size. There is nothing to worry about.
