NIH information about dermoid cyst being cancerous

Germ cell tumours are the most common ovarian neoplasms with ovarian mature teratoma (dermoid cyst) being the most common histologic type ([1]( https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R1),\[2\](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R2),\[9\](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R9) ). Dysgerminomas is the most common malignant type of germ cell tumours representing approximately 30% of all ovarian malignancies found during pregnancy followed by serous cystadenomas ([1]( https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R1),\[2\](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R2),\[9\](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8962791/#R9) ). I have a dermoid cyst and iv been doing a lot of research myself and it even says on the Ovarian Cancer website that Dermoids are the cysts that turn cancerous? why are these left inside women?! why is women’s health not taken seriously. why are we left with something inside our body that could turn malignant? submitted by /u/Responsible_Buy8292 [link] [comments]
