Ovarian tumor
in Women's Health ·
Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what size an ovarian teratoma actually needs to be before doctors recommend laparoscopic surgery? Mine is currently sitting at about 1.5 cm, and I've been told it might be better to just wait a bit for it to grow so the removal process is more straightforward. On that note, does anyone happen to know how fast these things typically grow?
