Hi,
Welcome to HCM
You have anemia that means low Hemoglobin ,it common in females of your age as there is blood loss and many times intake of Iron and other vitamin may be deficient. It should be confirmed first that deficiency of iron exist , then it may be corrected by diet as well as oral iron supplimentation.
Green leafy vegetables and if you are nonvegetarian you can take red meat.
Pay attention to correction of anemia.Have Hemoglobin more than 12 Gms%
A cyst may be small and definately benign that means noncacerous.
Some time they need to be just followed up disappear by themself.Some time if any infection is suspected a course of medicines heals them
Do not worry
Good luck to you
