He thinks it's "hemagophyte" or something... meaning that when the lil' egg came out at ovulation, it left a gap this time and so it filled with blood - kinda like a blister type of thing. It is often reabsorbed, but not always, so I have to do another more in-depth (literally, I'm sure) sonogram next week. Worst possible case = surgery to remove it. But I'm betting it will be gone by the time I have the sonogram (which he said is entirely possible).

Just be careful and on top of things... my mom had a cyst the size of an eight-month pregnancy when her ovarian cancer (and all female parts) was removed last year.
