[quote=Anonymous]I had a pelvic ultrasound a few months back and doctors discovered an ovarian cyst (the ultrasound was for an unrelated issue). The cyst was around 5cm at the time. Very shortly after, I found out I was pregnant. At my most recent ultrasound, the doctor stated that the cyst had grown a small amount (maybe a quarter/half centimeter), that it was a 'functional cyst' (which I think means it's benign/full of water?), and that we would continue to monitor it as there was a small risk of rupture or ovarian torsion should it continue to grow. They also mentioned potentially bringing in 'oncology' if it got bigger. Doctor did not seem concerned but I am freaking out about the impact on my pregnancy / potential for the cyst to cause future issues. Has anyone had a similar issue, and what happened? [/quote]
