Hello

Your finding suggests large left ovarian cyst.
It is right that simple ovarian cysts may regress with time (usually within 5-6 months).
As cysts is large in your case,chances of regression is less.However,you can have follow up ultrasound.
It may require surgical intervention if there is pain,infection,increase in size etc.
Tumour markers like CA-125 should also be assessed.
At present,I only advise for follow up ultrasound if it is asymptomatic.
If findings persists then you may need surgery.

Get well soon.
Take Care
