Hi thanks for contacting HCM...
Ovarian cyst does not always mean cancer ....
You are having hemorrhagic cyst with increased vascularity ...
So you should consult gynecologist for proper examination ....
For ovarian cyst clinical observation is necessary....
For one month you might given medication in form of contraceptive pill for ovarian cyst .....
If no improvement with medication then surgical removal of cyst done and send for histopathological examination....
Most of cyst are follicular cyst like simple cyst ....If not resolving then CA 125 estimation can be done for rule out malignancy along with histopath examination.
With keeping this in mind consult gynecologist .
Take care
