"Septated" means that the cyst is divided into segments. The significance of this is partly in how thick the walls ("septa") are between the parts. A thicker wall is thought to be a higher risk of being malignant, as is a complex cyst (which has solid and non-solid areas in it). Usually when there is a simple cyst, another ultrasound will be done in month, whereas with a complex one they would remove it and evaluate it for ovarian cancer. It sounds like in your case, not knowing which it is, the recommendation is to split the difference

You may want to confirm that you indeed do have these cysts before worrying yourself about cancer possibilities. Also most ovarian cysts are not cancerous.

I have had a cyst on my ovary and it was not cancerous and had to have it removed! Go and see your doctor and get referred to hospital to get a biopsy! Don't worry if caught on time wont be anything serious! The op is a very simple procedure - good luck!!!

Uterine fibroids are usually not dangerous, but can cause immense discomfort and lead to complications like anemia from heavy blood loss. In rare cases, they may cause complications that affect pregnancy.
In cases where there are no symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. However, proper diagnosis and treatment may be required if your symptoms are severe or causing complications. Along with conventional treatment, you can try some natural home remedies. Read here https://tr.im/cJw9U

SEPTATED means more a cyst with a membrane dividing it. I doubt very much that it is cancerous. Follow-up with your OB-GYN.
