I have a brain cyst

I have a brain cyst

I have been trying to find information about brain cysts but haven't been able to find much. I was hoping that I could get some answers here.
I'm a 20 year old female, I had a brain MRI and it showed a perfectly round 3mm brain cyst in the white matter of my right parietal lobe. How does a brain cyst form in the white matter? Most of the information I found regarding brain cysts only mentions cysts that are filled with spinal fluid (such as arachnoid cysts). My cyst isn't connected to anything (such as a ventricle) that could cause it to be filled with fluid. It's just sitting there by itself. I have never had any traumatic brain injuries or anything of that sort.
Does anyone know anything about this type of cyst?
