Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs or pockets within or on the surface of an ovary. Many women have ovarian cysts at some time during their lives. Most ovarian cysts present little or no discomfort and are harmless. The majority of ovarian cysts disappear without treatment within a few months.
Massaging the area will not cause the ovarian cyst to rupture. Pressure and massaging only affects the layers of skin, possibly fat and muscle, but will not penetrate to your organs, such as the ovaries.
