Cyst keyhole surgery while pregnant

I’m currently 15 weeks pregnant, we found out I have a 9x7cm ovarian cyst in week 7 and the cyst size remained the same until week 12. But when we scanned again in week 13, the size went down a little to 8.3cm, and in week 14 it went down further to 7.7cm x 4.4cm. However, if we wish to remove it, the ideal time frame advised by doctors to do the surgery is by week 16 so we don’t have much time. Has anyone had similar experiences or done cyst removal surgery before and able to offer some advice please? I’m also worried as I’d be travelling in 3 weeks and again in November (when I am week 27) so having the cyst there may be worrying. Also I’ve been seeing Dr Smita Jindal at KKH and Dr Kelly Loi at Mt E, but can’t really decide who to go with if we proceed with the surgery. If we go with KKH, we’re worried it will be tough reaching the doctor by phone in case of any issues we face after the surgery. Thank you!
