4.6cm unilocular, solid cyst - Enlighten me a bit, please?

[katebrighteyes]

I've been having bilateral pain around my ovary area, a jabbing feeling but its more of an awkward ache that throbs. I also have pain during sex. I went to my gp who sent me for a scan and this is what it said:

'Left ovary contacts a unilocular, solid, anechoic, avascular cyst measuring 46 x 31 x 40 mm. WIthin the posterior wall is a solitary papillation measuring 5 x 5 x 4 mm, no vascularity demonstrated. This may represent a retracting clot.'

It does state further on that there are 'no suspicious features' but I have been referred to a consultant gynae for an appointment within 2 weeks - lucky waiting time. What does this all mean though - is the cyst a 'bad' sign? Can solid cysts disappear?

Thanks in advance :)

The cysts are small and most likely benign.  Maybe you have cysts that pop and maybe that is what is causing the pain?   Maybe you have polycystic ovaries?  A Gyn is the right doctor to see.  2 weeks isn't that long of a wait.

Hang in there.

I just want to add that I am 21 so everyone is pretty much saying 'nothing to worry about at your age' but I am in pain alot of the time and I'm having to take pain killers to manage this.
