• Noncancerous (benign) ovarian growths include cysts (mainly functional cysts) and tumors.

    Most noncancerous cysts and tumors do not cause any symptoms, but some cause pain or a feeling of heaviness in the pelvis.
    Doctors may detect growths during a pelvic examination, then use ultrasonography to confirm the diagnosis.
    Some cysts disappear on their own.
    Cysts or tumors may be removed through one or more small incisions or one large incision in the abdomen, and sometimes the affected ovary must also be removed.

    Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form in or on an ovary. Such cysts are relatively common. Most are noncancerous (benign) and disappear on their own. Cancerous cysts are more likely to occur in women over 40.
