Hi,
Thank you for your query.
The above findings need to be considered keeping the development of the child in mind. If the child has attained menarche then the findings can be considered normal. The cyst in the ovary can be a normal phase of ovulation and needs to be monitored. With menstrual cycle it should subside.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing the child all the best.
