Doctor's answer:

Ovarian cysts, simply put, are "bubbles" on the ovaries. Generally, they don't cause any issues. If they twist, it can lead to abdominal pain, but usually, there are no obvious symptoms, so there's no need to panic. They rarely become malignant. Additionally, since this was just discovered and you've never had one before, it's unlikely for it to suddenly grow to 4 centimeters. It's recommended to follow up after your next menstrual period to see if it might be a follicle. If it ruptures after ovulation, it will disappear, and everything will be fine.
