It sounds like it needs to be removed. I had endometriosis years ago and, without the current imaging programs, I feared ovarian cancer, so I went for it. If laparoscopic surgery is possible, it is minimally invasive. You need more information, despite the cost, due to the effects on your bladder, it sounds like.

I totally agree with marye2. I know of someone with a large ovarian cyst, about 1/3 the size which turned out to be benign (PET scan). Removal was recommended due to the other organs being impacted from pressure on them from the cyst. The other issue that may arise is possible torsion of the cyst, which can be very painful. You should get a doctor’s advice but I expect the advice would be to get it removed and tested. Best of luck going forward….
