Complex ovarian cyst

Hello, I am 40 years old. I Six weeks ago a complex ovarian cyst was found on my ovary, I have been back today so they could have another look and it's still there now they are referring me as urgent to the GP for the next steps but they wouldn't tell me what these next steps were.  I am so worried.... has anyone been though this? I can't think about anything else 

  • Hello Cld and welcome to the forum.

    It's completely natural to worry until you know more but I hope it helps to know that 9 out of 10 people who are urgently referred are not diagnosed with cancer.

    There have been quite a few discussions about complex ovarian cysts (you can find and join in on some by using the 'search forum' option in the purple bar above) so hopefully some of our members will get back to you soon but if you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Fingers crossed everything will be o.k Cld.

    Kind regards,
