Pregnancy of about 18 weeks with a solid Ovarian Mass.

This video shows Pregnancy of about 18 weeks with a solid Ovarian Mass.
An ovarian tumor is a slow-growing abnormal mass of tissue on or in a woman's ovary. A tumor is a solid mass, unlike a fluid-filled ovarian cyst. A tumor can be benign or cancerous (malignant), but ovarian tumors are typically benign.
A tumor is a solid mass, unlike a fluid-filled ovarian cyst. Tumors, which occur in many areas of the body, are abnormal growths that don't have any purpose. A tumor can be benign or cancerous (malignant), but ovarian tumors are typically benign. Benign ovarian tumors most commonly occur in women of childbearing age.
Noncancerous (benign) ovarian growths include cysts (mainly functional cysts) and tumors. Most noncancerous cysts and tumors do not cause any symptoms, but some cause pain or a feeling of heaviness in the pelvis. Doctors may detect growths during a pelvic examination, then use ultrasonography to confirm the diagnosis.
An abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Solid tumors may be benign (not cancer), or malignant (cancer). Examples of solid tumors are sarcomas, carcinomas, and lymphomas. Leukemias (cancers of the blood) generally do not form solid tumors.
Surgery to remove an ovarian mass can be done either open or laparoscopically. Open surgery is usually done through a “bikini” incision low in the abdomen, splitting rather than cutting the abdominal muscles. Laparoscopic surgery is done through small incisions in the umbilicus and lower abdomen.
While imaging tests, such as X-rays, are helpful in detecting masses or areas of abnormality, they alone can't differentiate cancerous cells from noncancerous cells. For the majority of cancers, the only way to make a definitive diagnosis is to perform a biopsy to collect cells for closer examination.
Ovarian cysts are the most commonly encountered masses in pregnancy. Corpus luteum cysts constitute 13%–17% of cystic masses in pregnancy. The corpus luteum forms after ovulation and persists for 8–9 weeks during pregnancy. It produces progesterone early on until the placenta takes over.
The most common pregnancy-associated ovarian masses are functional cysts like the corpus luteum of pregnancy and theca-lutein cysts. Most of these cysts will resolve after the first 14-16 weeks of gestation but some, like the theca lutein cysts, can persist until after delivery.
It's common for women of childbearing age to get ovarian cysts, and it's equally common for moms-to-be to find out they have an ovarian cyst while they're pregnant. Fortunately, the vast majority of ovarian cysts are harmless and nothing to worry about.
An adnexal mass is a growth that occurs in or near the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the connecting tissues. They're usually benign, but are sometimes cancerous. Some of them are filled with fluid, and some are solid. Doctors tend to be more concerned if they're solid.
Twelve women underwent laparoscopic removal of benign ovarian cysts during pregnancy. Gestational age at the time of surgery ranged from 12 to 20 weeks (mean 15 wks). Laparoscopic cystectomy proved to be a safe operation during first and second trimesters of pregnancy.

You’re right, feeling how it began to shrink and eventually disappear within 2 months was so liberating. I followed the steps I mentioned, and within the first 2 weeks the bloating was gone. I simply go'ogled Tilly Strankten's Ovarian Cyst Guide and it's like I hit the feel-good reset button lol.
