Hi, Ive just been told I have two cysts on my ovaries.  One is 8cm and the other is 6cm.  I am 37 years old and was trying to get pregnant. Ive had to do a blood test to test if they are cancerous or not, but dont get them until tomorrow, and its driving me mad. What are my chances?  Gyno says they look like dermoid cysts.  Should I have surgery or should I try to reduce the size naturally?  Will I have kids, ever?  help please
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history, description and ultrasound findings, possibility of Desmond cyst (benign) is more. And cancerous ovarian cyst is less likely. You are also having infertility. So possibility of POD (poly cystic ovarian disease) is also high. POD is commonly associated with hormonal imbalance. And this is the cause for infertility in it. So get done blood report for hormone levels and if they are abnormal than you need hormone therapy. It will reduce the size of the cyst and improves your infertility. But if your hormone levels are normal than possibility of Desmond cyst is more. And in this case, you need to get done surgical removal. So get done blood reports and discuss these possibilities with your gynecologist. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
