Depends on many factors. As a generalization, if you are in reproductive age group (that is menstruating) and if the cyst is less than say 6-8 cm, simple (thats not many walls and solid areas inside) and clear, then you can leave them for a while. But need to follow up regularly. In almost every other situations surgery need to be considered.
