Re-occuring ovarian cysts...chances of cancer?

I've had 3 cysts on 1 ovary. 1 in which was 4 cm, I went to the doctor, and with treatment (and car accident), it ruptured along with the 1 cm cysts behind it. I was fine last month and cleared of any cysts. But now the same pain I felt when I had cysts are back again. And it's on the same side where I had them the last time. I am on my period, but my right side is not giving me as much pain as my left. When I was a freshman in high school, my Mother had a hysterectomy. They found border line tumors on numerous reproductive organs along with very large cysts. I have an appt. to see my OB/GYN on May 20th. What could be causing these cysts to re-occur. I'm almost certain it's back.

Are you on the pill?

I have numerous painful cysts that grow and shrink every month. I actually had one that burst 2 years ago!
The doctor wanted to put me on the contraceptive pill, because it does help with ovarian cysts, but unfortunately I could not take it cause it made me nauseated!
Is rare to have malignant cysts at your age, they are usually benign!
My mother also had a hysterectomy at an early age because she had too many fibroids on her uterus causing pain!

Stay positive and remember that you can always call them back (doctors) and have them see you earlier if you are in pain and worried!...Cysts are common in young girls:-)
