No. Doctors don't test women for every surgical procedure they need. They assume the woman herself check if she is pregnant and let him know.

What is the treatment if an ovarian cysts twists during pregnancy I am 10 weeks and 6 days?

I am 15 weeks pregnant and my doctor and I just discussed treatment options for my 8 cm asymptomatic ovarian cyst. She said if it twists or ruptures while I am pregnant she will need to do surgery to remove it and that it will likely involve removal of the entire ovary. If done during the second trimester, it will most likely be able to be done as a laproscopic surgery. After the second trimester if it begins to cause pain, it will be open abdomen surgery and again will likely mean the entire ovary has to go. I would definitely talk to your obstetrician about your individual situation though, especially if your cyst is causing pain or discomfort.


Can you have open heart surgery while being pregnant?

It very much depends on the surgery. In general, elective surgery should not be done during a pregnancy. Emergency surgery, such as appendicits, gall bladder attack, trauma such as in a car accident or a broken bone, sometimes needs to be done inspite of a pregnancy. If you are pregnant and are contemplating elective surgery, certainly your doctor needs to know that you are pregnant. Do not go into any surgery knowing you are pregnant without telling your surgeon.
