By the size of your cyst I would say it is a functional cyst. There wasn’t any blood found in it , was there?
The size of your cyst is common and it usually doesn’t need a treatment as it may shrink on its own. Sometimes bc pills are prescribed to help them shrink. That was my case but I wasn’t trying to get pregnant. I was on pills for two months.
I was in so much pain during my periods and they kind of became irregular. Did you experience any strange symptoms?
What did your gynecologist suggest? As far as I know, these cysts shouldn’t affect pregnancy but I also heard that they can become larger due to pregnancy hormones.
The size of your cyst is not worrisome but in case it gets bigger, a doc may decide to remove it.
P.S. I don’t think that the cyst had anything to do with your miscarriage.

I was told by my Doctor that I have a cyst on my left ovary. It is 8 cm. I know that is a large size. My periods are really bad, and painful. I am in so much pain. It hurts to walk, bend over or have sexual relations with my husband. Is this cyst big enough to remove or should I just wait for it to shrink?
