No cysts are not Cancerous. I have several. Tumors are a different story. They can go either way. I had a White Andenoma in my breast while pregnant. If it was malignant they said I wouldn't live to give birth. Had it removed. It wasn't Malignant....I had a miscarriage . My Gyn. Had misdiagnosed me. Said it was only a Cyst...I lost my baby for nothing. Get a second opinion to be sure it's a Cyst. Cysts do not become Cancerous ...double check though...but this has been my experience.

I have a cyst on my thyroid, on the left side, I still have to go in to have a scan done to see if it has grown in the last six months, it was .08 millimeters. If it has grown then I'll have to have a biopsy done to see if it's cancerous or benign. If it is cancerous then I'll have to have it removed, thyroid and all.
