Re: Cysts on ovaries

Hi! I get them ALL THE TIME. The first year after being diagnosed, I swear I had an U/S every 6 weeks. The protocol is to wait and see if they dissolve on their own--surgery is never the first option, unless there is torsion. I think you will be just fine.

I am on Tamoxifen, so mine are quite repetitive, but I have had them on and off for as long as I can remember (before BC).

Hang in there!
