Having a cyst in the ovary if it is simple cyst is normal and not serious. It is called corpus luteal cyst. After releasing the egg the follicle in the ovary forms a cystic structure which is called corpus luteum and in pregnancy it will persist to give hormonal support to the baby till placenta is functional say till 12 weeks. Sometimes it is little bigger than expected and show as a cyst in scan. It will shrink in due course. You can follow it in next scan. Rarely it can go for twisting or give rise to pain due to hemorrhagic inside the cyst. At present nothing to worry.
