Leave pelvic abscess and monitor?

Hi all, At gynecology appointment today the doctor said I could opt for surgery to remove abscess in fallopian tubes )and possible one ovary ) or I could leave for six months and just monitor how I get on , as I'm not in pain all the time. At the moment having flare ups of pain roughly twice a month.

I opted to leave and monitor with a repeat scan in six months, didn't have alot of time to think of a response!

Now I'm scared the abscess will keep growing inside and I won't know its getting worse . Does anyone have similar experience?
