Hi is anyone experiencing the same as me as I feel terrified.i had a ultrasound done which showed 3 small irregular border thick walls with increased blood flow cysts.yhe larger cyst being 24 mm x 14 mm quite small but.... I have googled this and all that stands out is ovarian cancer with these cyst structures? Has anyone else had this type of cysts please message me thanks Michelle xxx

Sorry sort of it didn't make sense I want largest cyst is 24 mm x 14 mm I am 48 still menstruating and no history of ovarian cancer but I am petrified but they don't seem as concerned as me even my GP he wouldn't urgently refer me either which If these cysts have all the traits surely he would ? The sonographwr said at time of scan see your gyno at follow up why didn't she refere urgently either as I feel I've just been left.xx

Hello I have private messaged you.i had a 1 at scan in November showing ovary was heterogenous in texture.then follow up with him dec and he asked for a repeat scan jan 13 which I had done and now showing 3 small irregular borders thick walled cysts with blood flow.ive researched and it all stands out as cancer !!! I'm concerned there's 3 but largest cyst is only 24 x 14 mm.what benign cysts can show these findings please ? Thank you Michelle x

Although these traits can occur with cancer, they can also occur with benign cysts. And most cysts are benign. The average woman's lifetime risk of ovarian cancer is very low at 1.3%. So if you do not have a genetic predisposition / family history of ovarian cancer then the odds are greatly in your favor that they are benign.

Is your doctor monitoring them for now with periodic ultrasounds?
