Can a dermoid cyst quadruple in size in less than 2 months and be benign?

I'm sure it will be fine, but does anyone have an answer? Google says they are much slower, but clearly google is not a match for a medical professional. Dr. told me after surgery it is a dermoid, but she sent it to pathology with a peritoneal washing. It is taking longer than advised to come back.

Has anyone here had a fast growing dermoid that turned up benign? Mine went from 50cc to over 200cc in a month and a half. Seems off. Will update with report when I can if someone is interested.
