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 is an ovarian cyst treated? Ovarian cystDoctor's answer:
Not all ovarian cysts are malignant. Sometimes, a procedure called laparoscopy can be used to drain the cyst, but the usual treatment is to remove the cyst. When this treatment is performed, it usually does not interfere with the ovary. However, occasionally, to ensure the entire cyst is removed, the entire ovary, and even the fallopian tubes, may need to be removed. Since you have two ovaries, removing one still allows you to become pregnant. If you already have children or have gone through menopause, your gynecologist may recommend removing both ovaries and the uterus. This is because once you develop a cyst, there is a possibility of recurrence, and when the cyst recurs, you may be at risk of developing cancer.
