My daughter's GYN found a lump when she was 17. They did a sonogram and removed it. It was a benign tumor. I can't remember what they called it exactly. The two weeks between finding it and the removal and biopsy where nerve racking for us. She kept referring to the surgeon as Dr. Coppafeel while coming out of anesthesia... I wanted to kill her then, even though I was so relieved that it was benign!

During the few weeks of wait time I talked to MANY woman who had gone through the same thing and had cysts or tumors that were benign. I think it is quite common.
