I had unprotected sex on the 9th day after my period ended. My cycle is usually between 25 to 28 days. Should I consider taking an emergency contraceptive pill like the I pill? I'm a bit worried.

I have a dermoid cyst in my right ovary measuring 43x34x44 mm from an MRI in February and it might have grown since then. I feel swelling in my right thigh and abdomen. Several gynecologists recommended laparoscopy because they say it contains hair and teeth and could twist. I'm hesitant about surgery can homeopathy actually dissolve this kind of cyst? I'm single and a bit nervous about going under the knife.
