How should ovarian cysts be treated?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on. I haven't had sex with my husband recently either. I usually clean my private parts and underwear, but suddenly started feeling discomfort in my lower abdomen. Please ask: How should I treat an ovarian cyst?

Doctor's answer:

Ovarian cysts refer to a general term for cystic masses in the ovaries. The harm they pose to the body and their treatment options depend on their nature. Generally, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence of a tumor, it is often a functional cyst, which can be closely monitored, meaning a check-up every 2-3 months, and then the follow-up interval can be adjusted based on the situation. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters, it is more likely an ovarian tumor, and surgical treatment is usually required. Ovarian cysts are a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
