Patient's question:
Last year, I had an episode of it. At that time, after checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which quickly controlled it through both topical and oral use. However, recently, I've started feeling uncomfortable again. Could you please explain: What exactly causes an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the main reasons for the occurrence of ovarian cysts are: dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. Clinically, many patients and patients with polycystic ovary syndrome exhibit fundamental pathological and physiological changes, where the ovaries produce excessive androgens. The excessive production of androgens is the result of synergistic actions among multiple different endocrine system dysfunctions in the body. The serosal epithelium repeatedly stimulated by menstrual hormone or chronic inflammation can be metaplasia into endometrial-like tissue, forming endometriosis. 80% of endometriosis recurrences occur in the ovaries, related to the metaplastic potential of the ovarian germinal epithelium. However, many scholars now believe that peritoneal irritation is a consequence rather than a cause of endometriosis, and such irritation typically occurs outside the ectopic foci. Get well!
