What should I do if a cyst is found on the left side during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Today when I went for a prenatal check-up, I was surprisingly found to have a cyst on my left side. How should I handle it if a cyst on the left side is detected during pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

The patient may experience cystic changes in the ovaries again due to the stimulation caused by the increase in progesterone levels during pregnancy. This cyst will gradually expand over time as the pregnancy progresses. If the cyst size does not exceed 5 cm, it will not significantly affect the pregnancy, and there is no need to worry. Regular B examinations can be performed to monitor the cyst closely, while also observing the early growth and development of the fetus.
