1/17/10: Cysts Happen, but what do you need to know if theyhappen to you?

After having a melon-sized ovarian cyst removed this summer, Eva spoke to other women who have experienced ovarian cysts and to her surgeon Cheung Wong, MD, the Director of Gynecologic Oncology at Fletcher AllenHealth Care.  Why do ovarian cysts happen?  What types are there?  What treatments are available?  And what aboutovarian cancer?
