Did you get an xray or just an ultra sound? I couldn't bear with the thought of putting her through the stress of an xray
 
Rosie had hormone injections which worked wonders, and shrank the cysts to barely noticeable even by the vet. They did however come back within a few months, but that is the risk due to the fact it is hormone related and a sow never stops going through her cycle. I will say they don't always come back though.
Rosie's were particularly large, in-fact when our vet had broken her arm but was sitting in our appointment with another vet who didn't really know piggies she showed him, and he compared it to a cows ovary not a piggies.

Rosie never had an Xray or ultrasound as they could both be easily palpated.
 
My little girl just had the same. Her second injection...boy was she grumpy about It too! She is due another in two weeks.
