Dermoid Cyst

Hi,

 

I'm new to this but I've recently been diagnosed with a dermoid cyst on my ovary and have just endured my second scan. The consultant has said they will monitor it over a year.  Having explained that there is cancer within my family he didn't seem worried and said they will just continue to monitor, is this normal??

 

  • Hi riggers and welcome to the Cancer Chat community.

    If you're still concerned maybe you could try getting a second opinion? We have some information on our website about this just here but our cancer nurses are available by phone if you'd like to have a chat with them about this as well. You can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,
