Pregnancy Info HOME

My friend Beckee had an ovarian cyst (that she did not know about) before she was pregnant. When she fell pregnant, her hormones caused the cyst to grow and once she had reached 12 weeks, she had to have surgery (through the lower abdomen) to have the cyst removed. When it was taken out, it was the size of a golf ball. She recovered and eventally went on to have a healthy pregnancy and delivery. her doctor told her that in certain women, their hormones can cause the cysts to grow, so I suspect that is why your doctor is watching you closley. He/she probably does not want to scare you and is being vague for that reason. Good luck!
