Patient's question:
The doctor said I have a cyst on my right ovary, 3.54.7. These days I've seen online that if it reaches 5.0, it must be removed immediately. Is that true?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the only treatment for benign ovarian tumors is surgical removal. For cysts with a diameter of less than 5 to 6 cm, careful observation for 3 to 6 months is possible. If the cyst decreases in size, or if the tumor has a diameter of less than 5 cm but is solid, surgical removal should be performed. For children and young, childless patients, unilateral oophorectomy or unilateral adnexectomy is often used. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
