Dear madam,I understand your concern.In my opinion fibroid cant be mistaken for pregnancy.Because fibroid originates from uterine wall.And pregnancy is seen in the cavity of uterus.It is seen as a sac called gestational sac and yolk sac and fetal pole inside the sac.
The ovarian cyst might be simple follicular cyst which are asymptomatic and disappear over few weeks.
