Don't yeah because excessive and/or irregular bleeding, as i'm sure you know anyway, can be caused by perfectly functional cysts.
The truth is if you took any 30+ woman and had her scanned there are more odds a cyst would be found on an ovary then not and most likely she wouldn't even have had any symptoms to indicate she may have one. And of course in 99.9% of cases, these will be non cancerous cysts, even the non functional kind. Ovarian cancer anyway is super rare in women under 45 (he average age being 63).
(and ya i now it may sound weird this here guy is talking about this shit like he knows shit about it but i believe i do because miya has a pathological fear of ovarian cancer so i've read hundred pages worth of shit about it in the past 8 years because she won't, but rather ask me to read about it and tell her if such and such symptom is indicative of...my mom also had a very big cyst removed two years ago which yes was cancerous but she waited forever to have something done about it, like two years, and it still hadn't spread anywhere, removing the cyst was all she needed to do to be deemed cancer free...she was also 60)
