Patient's question:
Recently, I found that I was getting easily tired, but at the time, since there were no other symptoms, I didn't take it seriously. In the past few days, I started bleeding from the lower body, and my lower abdomen became very hard. I was very scared. After checking, they said I had an ovarian cyst. Now I'm completely lost and don't know what to do. Please ask: What are the consequences of not treating an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts can mainly be divided into two categories: tumorous and non-tumorous. The ovarian cysts commonly referred to generally refer to non-tumorous ovarian cysts. In clinical diagnosis, ovarian cysts often manifest symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, increased vaginal discharge, yellow vaginal discharge, vaginal odor, and menstrual irregularities. Additionally, there is usually a solid, painless lump in the lower abdomen, and sexual intercourse may cause renewed pain. When the cyst affects hormone supply, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or persistent hair growth may occur. If the cyst undergoes regression, severe symptoms such as severe abdominal pain and distension, difficulty breathing, reduced appetite, nausea, and fever may appear.
