I'm 19 weeks along in my pregnancy and just got my TIFFA scan done last week. They said everything looks normal with the baby's movements and measurements, but they mentioned a thick abdomen and poor window. I'm really worried about what this means for my baby. Should I be concerned? Is there something specific I should be looking out for?

My mom's ultrasound report shows a cyst in her left ovary and a small appendicolith measuring 92.3 mm. Can this be treated with medicine or is surgery the only option?

For an ovarian cyst, treatment options range from observation and medication to surgery depending on size and symptoms. Small cysts may resolve on their own, while larger or symptomatic cysts might require surgical removal or other interventions. For an appendicolith (a stone in the appendix), treatment depends on the severity of symptoms and the size of the stone. Options include observation, antibiotics, or surgical removal of the appendix (appendectomy).
