Hi all, im 8+3 and had an early dating scan today and they told me I had a cyst and now im really freaked out.

Has anyone ever had this? Was it ok? Did you have problems during pregnancy? X

I had a cyst (although I knew about it before pregnancy). It didn't cause any problems at all and I was lucky that my consultant removed it during my c section.

I have a large cyst, an endometrioma and a fibroid

Gynaecologist looked and said to leave alone during pregnancy

I'm currently 17 weeks and all ok so far

Relax, it's almost certainly not a problem. I had one (dermoid). Got a couple of extra scans to check it wasn't growing (it didn't). Had it removed when baby was one year old. Not an issue at all in pregnancy or in labour.

I had a cyst when I was 8 weeks, it was completely gone by the time I was 12 weeks. Did they say they were concerned? It's quite common, they usually go by 12 weeks and if not they just keep an eye on them, I don't think it's anything to worry about. Quite often it's just where you've ovulate I think.

It’s really normal. Corpus luteum cysts can sit in your ovary after ovulating... they have nearly always dissolved by 12 weeks, so unless you had an early pregnancy scan, you’d have had no idea you had it. Don’t panic!
I had one on this pregnancy and it was fine by 12 weeks

I had one too & it just dissolved. DS is 20 now :)

I had one two years ago too. Although the majority resolve themselves mine kept growing. And got to be pretty big. Caused absolutely no problems with my pregnancy at all. I had an ELCS (it was my third after to EMCS so I didn't have a choice) and they removed it then. However, had I been lucky enough to not have a CS they would have removed it laparoscopically a few months post birth.
