What should I do if I have an ovarian cyst during early pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Hello, I am more than 50 days pregnant. During an ultrasound, a large (about 10 cm) ovarian cyst was found. If an ovarian cystectomy and induced abortion are performed simultaneously, what impact will it have on future fertility? If only an ovarian cystectomy is performed, what effect will it have on the fetus? What should I do? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Great! If the cyst is small and does not affect ovulation function, then it will not affect pregnancy. In some cases, for example, if the cyst is very large and occupies the entire position of the ovary, with very thin ovarian cortex, and some tumors can secrete hormones that affect the ovary's ovulation function and development, this may affect pregnancy. Additionally, there is endometriosis, which has a high incidence rate and can affect fertility to a certain extent.
