Hello, Anon! Thank you for posting.
You will have to discuss your options with your doctor as we cannot know the specifics of your tests. There is no medicine (that I know of) to shrink them.
Generally, an ovarian cyst may need to be removed if it is suspected of being cancerous - chances being more likely in older women. The cyst is large - more than 2.5 inches in diameter or is solid - rather than containing just fluid. Causing pain.
