Ok my dr called and told me i had a cystic lesion on my left ovary. Im 23yrs old dont know much about it? They said they didnt think it was cancerous, but it still scares me.

Just go back to the "Forums" and look for Ovarian Cysts. It's right after "Ovarian Cancer"

Take care

Hi,
  What you might like to do is check out the top right of this page "Health Pages" . It has a lot of information about cysts. They're really common and 95 % benign. Jane is right.. there must have been a test that dx. the cyst since they rarely can be "felt"..

   Cysts are just a normal part of our cycles and sometimes they don't "disappear" as they should .. There is a Forum just for Ovarian Cysts .. why not visit us over there, since this is the Ovarian Cancer forum..When is your next Dr. appointment? Drop over to the cyst forum and you'll rest easier when you see how many of us have or have had cysts..

Hi, Did your doctor give you more information than just a diagnosis? I'm sure that you had tests to determine what's going on with you. Make an appointment with your doctor and sit down and discuss this diagnosis with him and find out what he  recommends, and what you can expect.
Bring someone with you, to remember what you forget, especially since you'e scared which is of course understandable. Also, bring a list of questions, anything you want to ask your doctor, and be sure to get copies of your tests for your home file. I hope you find this advice helpful, keep us informed....Jane
