Dermoid Cyst and Pregnant?

dermoid cyst
obsolete_allurement asked:


Hi, Im 7 weeks pregnant with my first and had and ultra sound this past weekend.

A dermoid cyst was found on my left ovary, which is actually the ovary I used to ovulate for this pregnancy.

The cyst appears to be benign and shouldnt affect the pregnancy.

I have read that they can rupture, cause infection, or they can twist the ovary and cause great pain.

I have also read where women have had theirs removed in the 2nd trimester.

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this? Did you have yours removed etc etc?

Thanks in advance.

When i was 9 weeks pregnant they found a dermoid cyst no my ovary too and the lady said not to worry about unless you are in lots of pain. She said it would be fine, just get it removed when you’ve had the baby. She also said that she has had a lady in there that has had 4 kids and still has her cyst. Good luck
