Hey guys I have a concern and was wondering if any1 could help me out with this. About a year ago I was in a car accident and the tested my insides for damage. They fong a cyst in my right ovary about the size of a grape friut if not bigger. I recently got sick (thought I had the flu) and found out that I was about 6 weeks pregnant. About a week after that I was spotting really bad so I went to the ER. They did a ultra sound and blood work. They tested me positive as well but based on hormone levels I was only 2 weeks along. The ultra sound showed no signs of pregnancy. (Dr. told me not to worry about this). She did see the cyst and expressed that it was very big. I have a Dr. appointment on the 1st. I was wondering if the cyst could be causing the morning sickness and tiredness and sore breast that I am having. Well scatch that I know that I am pregnant I have had every possible sign. But I have heard of women having to have surgery while pregnant. Is there a chance this could be cancerous. Will it harm my baby? I am kind of stressing about this. Does any1 have any answers?

Ovarian cysts can be drained with a needle, it's not too complicated. It's probably not cancerous if they are calling it a cyst, which is a fluid-filled sac. They would call it a tumor or a mass if it was solid. Fluid is not cancer. Probably if you are pregnant the cyst will resolve itself, though at that size maybe not.
