Patient's question:
Recently, I've suddenly felt that my abdomen has become larger, and it's accompanied by abdominal pain. My menstrual cycle is also irregular. If I have an ovarian cyst, how should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts can be physiological (meaning they are normal fluctuations in the menstrual cycle that can naturally disappear) or pathological (formed due to disease). Physiological cysts do not require surgery, while pathological cysts often need surgery for definitive diagnosis and additional treatment. If you have an ovarian cyst and have already experienced symptoms such as abdominal pain, menstrual irregularities, or abnormal menopause, immediate treatment is necessary.
