Hi
ive just been diagnosed with an ovarian
cyst, luckily at my last scan it had
halved in size so the medics are going to
scan again in march 2004 and see if it has
gone, can anyone tell me if they know
whether its possible for the cyst to
increase in size again once it has begun
to shrink

No, usually ovarian cysts come and go
without any symptoms at all.
There is a rare chance that this one will
be different and you will need surgery,
but that is very rare. Many women have
cysts that just come and go. If you get on
birth control, that will help prevent them
in the future.
