Thanks for the update. Be aware that the CA125 test is not accurate at diagnosing ovarian cancer because benign conditions can cause an elevated result. Tracking of periodic CA125 results is helpful in assessing treatment efficacy for those with OC and may have some usefulness in diagnosing it but that is the subject of a recent study.
Hi, thank you for your reply, I have to be rescanned to check the growth and have a CA125 blood test done. Won't know anything until my next scan.
Sonographers usually don't explain anything. You have to wait to speak with your doctor. Hopefully, your doctor will explain everything such as the type of cysts and treatment plan.
If you do not have a genetic predisposition / family history of ovarian cancer, then these cysts are likely benign. If the size warrants surgical removal, it is best to have just the cyst(s) removed (cystectomy) versus the ovary(ies). Removal of just one ovary can disrupt natural hormone function leading to reduced fertility and even early menopause. An intact "reproductive" system is essential for LIFELONG health as the ovaries of INTACT women produce hormones at least up to age 80. So if surgery is needed, seek out a surgeon with good cystectomy skills. And if you are told that cancer is a possibility / cyst looks suspicious, a gynecologic oncologist should do your surgery.
Let us know what you find out.
