Ladies, if you had an ovarian cyst and it was growing, would you opt for surgery (laproscopic) or leave it?

Ultrasound shows a "simple" cyst. (not likely cancerous)
alone? It really doesn’t hurt me much – just a little achy at times.
I have concerns about anesthesia.
Thanks everyone who answers.

I did opt for surgury. There is no way of telling if the cyst is benign or malignant or if the cells are beginnng to change. It isn’t really safe to leave this in your body. The only way a biopsy can be done is to have it removed.
Well, you wouldn’t want it to burst. That’s painful.
if it bursts it will hurt. =|
Depends. It could spread and end up killing you.
How much do you value your life?
Coming from a medical student, you should probably get that taken care of. A number of things could happen if you just leave it.
Go ahead and get it removed. It can burst at any time and THAT will be much more painful than the surgery,
opt for surgery. my cousin had one and it grew into a tumor and weighed 9 lbs.
I would diffently get the surgery cause leaving it there good cause serious damage
