Cysts that occur in postmenopausal women have a higher risk of malignancy and are usually evaluated and treated aggressively. OC often do not cause any symptoms. Treatment decisions are based on the woman's age, the size of the cyst, and the ultrasound appearance, which usually provides adequate information to determine which cysts are appropriate for observation and which necessitate surgical removal.
