Patient's question:
I always feel a strange pain in my lower abdomen, and my menstrual cycle has always been irregular. I also often have a lot of leukorrhea discharge, and most of the time, the leukorrhea has a foul odor. What should I do if I have an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor and can affect women of all ages, but they are most common in women aged 20-50. Most ovarian cysts are benign, while very few are malignant. Close follow-up is recommended, which involves thorough examinations every 2-3 months, followed by adjusting the examination interval based on the situation. If the cyst diameter is larger than 5 centimeters, it is more likely to be an ovarian tumor, and surgical treatment is generally required. Ovarian cysts are a gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients maintain clean external genitalia and change their underwear frequently. Finally, we wish all female patients a speedy recovery!
