Unless you have extensive family history of breast, colon, or ovarian cancer your risk for cancer is low. 95% of cysts are benign.

Hello.... I see that you have already posted to the Ovarian Cyst forum.  I do not know the risk of cancer with your type of cyst.  Maybe someone here might know and jump in.  My suggestion would be to post your question to Dr. Goodman.  The link is down to the right of the page under "Related Expert Forums"  Ovarian Cancer.  If the page is full try again later.  It might take her a few days for her to answer your question.  Cindy
