Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me how to treat this condition after discovering an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally speaking, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence suggesting a tumor, it is often a functional cyst. It 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 generally requires surgical treatment. If it is accompanied by progressive relief of dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia, as well as painful nodules in the pelvis, endometriosis (also known as chocolate cysts) should be considered. Different treatments can be adopted based on specific circumstances. !
