Various cysts in the reproductive area?

I was diagnosed with ovarian cysts in September, after having them for a long time, and found out yesterday I now have one on my cervix, that is easily seen and felt during an exam. They also saw that my uterus is pushed all the way over to the left side of my abdomen/pelvic area and my cervix is pushed down to the left side of my vaginal wall. They didn't say much, leaving me a little unassured about this problem, but I am assuming that the cyst of my right ovary (which has been the most troublesome) has grown incredibly fast and large, and is pushing everything out of place. I do not have an ultrasound until December 6 and am a little stressed over this whole situation. Is surgery likely for a situation like mine? I formed the cysts while on birth control so that is obviously not a treatment option for me. Anyone with info or experience?

My wife dealt with these as well. She had a surgery to have them removed at an early age, 19. We had 2 kids after that. Recently, she's 45 now, she had a hysterectomy since it looked like the cysts were going to be an ongoing problem. If it was worry some for the Dr. he would have let on. These things are mostly just a nuisance. Try and not worry about it too much. It sounds like you may be a little more prone than most to them though. I would advise having kids early if possible but I'm not in a situation to make that recommendation.
