Diagnosed with a 10cm endometriosis

Hi all, just been diagnosed with a csyt in my right ovary, size if 10cm with blood inside(chocolate cyst?) ive been reading alot online and i am scared its cancerous or can lead to cancer? Is this correct or i am just worrying myself? Anyone else?

  1. My girlfriend got her cyst measuring 12cm removed last month and tissue sent for biopsy. It wasn’t cancer or will lead to cancer . Don’t worry

    1. Hi . We are not medical experts, so we can't tell you for certain that it is not cancer, but doctors are usually pretty careful to rule that out. Have you asked your doctor whether cancer is a possibility? Please don't be shy about asking your doctor. It is important for your peace of mind. Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
