According to one of the articles cited by meeshodge, a complex cyst should be BI-RADS 4 and biopsy is recommended.
“Because complex cysts are associated with varying incidences of malignancy, they were assigned BIRADS categories 4 or 5 and biopsy was recommended.”
Now I’m confused! Maybe you can show him the article and ask for clarification. Ask questions until you’re satisfied with the answer. Some doctors are irritated when you ask lots of questions, but it’s your health and you pay them. If you can, go for 2nd opinion.
A complex cyst can still be benign (also according to the article)
