Do chocolate cysts on the ovary increase the risk of cancer?

My gyno told me yesterday that there is an increased risk of 5 to 20% of cancer having these cysts and they should be removed. I have never heard this before and can't find any info to support this on the net. I'm paranoid of surgery and was wondering if anyone has also been told about a correlation with cancer. Was my doctor exaggerating?

No, apparently not, but they may take years to develop when you are in your 50's.
Reply:we call chocolate cysts, that produced for endometriosis, and endometrio is a kind tissue internal covering uterus, when the women are pregnant the baby implant there, but if is no pregnancy on it, this endometrio get out whit ovule and this is menstruation, then endometriosis is the same tissue, but out of the uterus(overall in abdominal and pelvic cavities)and this tissue can produce Chocolate cysts, then you must to ask to doctor about this condition(many doctors doesn't have education about it). exist medicine for endometriosis, but only for laparoscopy your doctor can give you a diagnostic and clean it up inside, but i never recommended the histerectomy,because this really don't help( only the doctor get more money)
