How to check for ovarian cysts?

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. How should I treat leukoplakia of the external genitalia? How should I check for ovarian cysts?

Doctor's answer:

Ovarian cysts are classified into various types, including liquid cysts, mixed cysts (also known as complex cysts), serous cysts, mucinous cysts, chocolate cysts, and subserous cysts (also known as teratomas). First, you need to determine the type of cyst based on the confirmed ultrasound findings from your hospital. Generally, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence suggesting malignancy, it is often a functional cyst. In such cases, close monitoring is recommended, with follow-up examinations every 2-3 months. Subsequently, the follow-up interval can be adjusted based on the situation. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters, it is more likely to be an ovarian tumor.
