Chocolate cysts are noncancerous ovarian cysts formed deep within the ovaries and filled with menstrual blood. The name comes from their brown, tar-like appearance. It is also known as ovarian endometrioma. The symptoms include irregularities in menstruation and bowel movements and pain during intercourse.
