Can Ovarian Cysts Lead To One Ovary Becoming Enlarged?

Question: I just found out today in attempts to find my missing IUD mirena that my right ovary is bigger than my left by almost double the size. I won't get my results or answers for 3-4 business days. I'm having bad anxiety about why it's this way and Google just makes it worse :/ could it be normal to have different size ovaries by that big of a size difference?
Brief Answer:
Probably an ovarian cyst, there is nothing to worry about.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
There are many causes of different size ovaries. The most common cause can be the ovarian cyst.
There are different types of cysts, some resolve over time, some do not. I suggest you do an ultrasound to know the exact size of each ovary so we can evaluate better. Anyway, I think there is nothing to worry about.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
