Ovarian Cyst after 12 weeks Questions

Has anyone on here with an ovarian cyst got any experience of:

  • A cyst still being there at the 12 week follow-up scan, after having had periods since last scan?

  • Regular severe headaches while not particularly stressed, for no reason?

  • Swelling in your lower legs?

  • C-section overhang seeming to portrude out more than usual?

I had my 12 week follow-up scan yesterday and was told a cyst they found at last scan is still there. The sonographer said it is unusual for a cyst to not have disappeared while still having had periods since last scan. I was told my gp would be in touch by the end of the week.

Not overly concerned as I know ovarian cysts are very common, however I do feel a little uneasy as expected it to have gone.
