Could The Mass On The Ovary Lead To Cancer And Also Having Fibroid Cyst On The Same Ovary?

I just received news from my family doctor today that after my pelvic ultrasound it has been discovered that I have a 9x9x5 cm mass on my right ovary. Next step priority list for MRI and blood test CA125 in 3 days. I also have a fibroid cyst on the same ovary. I am 53 and premenepausal (sp?) symtoms include lower back pain now 1 yea,r excessive bleeding and very long menstrual cycles, increasingly frequent urination, abdominal pain (stabbing), and fatigue. My Mother died of ovarian cancer when she was 38 .. I was 19. What are the chances in my case that this mass is cancerous? I am really scared as I just received this news hours ago.

Hi its is difficult to tell whether you are suffering from cancer without diagnosis but with the family history you need to be vigilant. With the symptoms and investigation report you need to follow your doctor's advice properly to diagnose the cause and for its management. The MRI report, CA125 and biopsy will help in complete diagnosis.

Wish you faster recovery and good health.
