I am 50yrs. old and have been throught menopause for over 3 yrs. I found out I have a fibroid tumor and a ovarian cyst. Both are about 1.2cm. I had spotting for 3 days and the stopped. Should I be concerned about either one of these? I go to my GYN. about a month.

I'm 55 years old, been menopausal for 3+ years and was found to have a plum sized fibroid in my uterus and a 10 cm cyst on my ovary. Had the cyst, ovary and tube removed in Feb. Mine was benign as are 95% of cysts. Only your doctor can tell you whether there's a cause for concern. Do follow up with the doctor visit.

For more information about all of this, you can pop over to the ovarian cysts forum. They also have an excellent "health page" about all the different kinds of cysts and of course plenty of experience to share.
