i miscarriage 17th april and they found a cyst.
they didn’t seem concerned and just said it could be hormonal. i didn’t know i had it as no symptoms etc but had a letter through post for a rescan. i didnt realise they did follow up appointments tbh unless they did mention it but i was just out of it during the time due to what was going through. i might of misheard her. now im panicking!!
i need some reassurance 🥹

(i am TTC, i made that aware at my scan, i have had bloods done for infertility, and recent bloods done that i requested all ok. my cycles are regular and my cycles came back normal after miscarriage & ovulation is normal)

This is very standard - they’ll be wanting to rescan to check if the cyst was follicular (related to you ovulating) or if it’s still there/grown any bigger. Usually small simple cysts don’t need any treatment. Sorry to hear about your miscarriage :(

Hi OP, this genealogy board is for people researching their family trees. I've asked MNHQ to move your post to a more relevant area, hope that's okay.

Thanks @OutOfApricots. We've moved this over to the relevant section for you, OP. Hopefully others here will be able to advise, too.

to add to this, I’ve just rang my GP to find out who wanted a follow-up scan and it was actually the EPU that requested for another three monthly scan so the letter just scared me

thought i’d update you all
had my dating scan today & the scan went amazing i’m measuring 12+6d & no cyst was found on either ovaries so maybe it wasn’t a dermoid cyst? the sonographer was amazing and she explained everything even down the baby! she was really knowledgeable (she explained she had just done training for scanning different kinds of cysts) and wasn’t concerned about anything, both ovaries looked perfect. i didn’t realise dermoids could just disappear like that but the sonographer said it could’ve been a ovulation cyst..🤷🏻‍♀️
she was really thorough and looked all around and nothing concerning was found!

That’s great news! It could also be a corpus luteal cyst that supports the foetus whilst it’s placenta is growing - main thing is that it’s all going well 🤩

well, I have a little boy who is six and when I was pregnant with him, I had no cyst present then that’s why when they told me last time that I had a dermoid I was really shocked.
i remember when they found the cyst at my miscarriage scan then they scanned me again a week later & couldn’t see the cyst and same again today she couldn’t find it, i wonder if they did actually misdiagnose me and it was a functional cyst?xxx
