Doubled in size

Hello!

Following an NHS scan on the 11th, I was told by my doctor I had a suspicious cyst and they were going to rescan in 8-10 weeks.

I had a private scan on Saturday 10 days later for reassurance and was told I have a septated cyst…. Also my endometrial lining is thicker than expected at 9mm. I had an app with my GP today as I am extremely bloated and constipated, I gave him my results from my private scan Saturday & he said my cyst has doubled in size in less that 2 weeks and is now over 5cm. (How can this double in that time?) they also said it’s not dermoid. It didn’t look very good on the screen however the private Sonographer said (which is very patronising) if you were my daughter I wouldn’t be losing sleep over this, as your very young and Ovarian cancer is so rare in people your age!

should I be worried? I’m not one to moan but something really does not seem right, I can just. I’m barely eating a thing and I’m constantly bloated. I just want someone to tell me I’m not over reacting! My GP said he was going to make an urgent referral but will send them a message so that they go directly to him and he will call me in a couple of days. Has anyone had this before that resulted in Ovarian Cancer?
