Patient's question:
10 years have passed, and I have visited the doctor many times, taking many medications without a permanent solution. During my menstrual period, I experience varying degrees of abdominal pain. Is there any way to this pain? What should I do about the pain from an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if pain occurs during the menstrual period, it is called dysmenorrhea, and it may not necessarily be due to a cyst. If the period has already ended and there is significant pain with the presence of a cyst, the first thing to consider is checking for an ovarian cyst torsion. If this condition is present, surgery is required. Therefore, it is important to seek medical attention promptly in this situation. Through a doctor's physical examination and ultrasound, it can be determined whether there is an ovarian cyst torsion, which will help decide the appropriate treatment.
