It depends on the ovarian cyst itself. Senior year of high school one of my classmates got one that ended up being ovarian cancer and she had to have it removed.

Same year my best friend and I both ended up with them. We were both placed on birth control pills to shrink them. The doctors said that if the pills helped then we were fine, if the pills didn’t help, then they’d surgically remove it. My cyst responded to the birth control pills so I have "dissolving cysts" meaning that I will experience the pain and stuff of them every once in awhile, but they’ll go away. My best friends cyst continued to grow even while on the pill so she had to have hers surgically removed. Her doctor warned her that hers could come back and there was more of a liklihood that it would come back cancerous, but she’s been okay so far. Mine, I just have to deal with.

If I were you I would continue to get checked out when you have the pain. I know it seems like a hassel but they have to make sure yours are actually going to dissolve. You don’t want to end up like my best friend did (she was always super sick and in serious pain), or like our classmate did. Just have regular pelvic exams and you should be fine.

Hope this helps.

Most go away on thier own, however if you are having cysts, you are not ovulating. If children you want to have in your future, you should talk to a doctor. If you are not ovulating, you cannot become pregnant. You should have been told what causes cysts.

Nothing! All women have ovarian cysts to one degree or another. They rupture and go away on their own. Only the ones that get big enough to cause pain make themselves known.

what could happen if you have ovarian cysts and you dont do anything about them?
i had pain so i had a sonnogram done
and they found a cyst
and a month later they checked again and said it dissolved.

well since then i have the pain at various times often.
and i assume its more ovarian cysts
but it feels like a waste to get it checked out if theyre just going to see its there, and check again later and see it dissolved.
