    i had a cyst diagnosed by ultrasound it was huge so the timescale was a bit quicker than yours. i saw the gynae within 2 weeks its nothing to be scared of they will just chat, do a quick internal examination bit like a smear, may do some bloods. they will then plan whether they will watch and wait for if surgery is needed.

    i had surgery they removed 20cm cyst xx

    its small to be causing issues did they say what type if cyst it was. friend of mine had one only 4cm or something but it caused her pain. they went in to look and it was a bloody filled cyst which was leaking and causing pain. they decided to leave it and it has gone away now.

    hope you get sorted, keep us updated
