I was diagnosed with a 4.2 cm wide ovarian cyst about 3 weeks ago. They didn’t give me any pain relievers until a couple days later, which was Tylenol with Codeine to also help me sleep a little.
2 weeks later, it’s still causing major pain. I’ve missed 9 days of school because of it. We went back to the doctor and he said he would refer me to an OBGYN.
I’m only 14, and this is my first cyst. My mom and grandmother have had a series of cysts and tumors. My mom has endometriosis too. We basically have a lot of heredity with this.
What are the chances that this cyst will have to be removed surgically, and what are the chances that my OBGYN will do a pelvic exam tomorrow?

Plus, I’m a virgin, so will that, along with the pain of the cyst, make this experience [pelvic exam] painful and severely uncomfortable?
At first, they thought it was appendicitis, but my appendix is fine, so they outruled that with a CT Scan with injection and barium. That’s how they found the cyst.
