Polycystic ovary and ovarian cyst are the same?

Patient's question:

Doctor: Hello!! Is polycystic ovary and ovarian cyst the same thing? How should it be treated?

Hello, they are different. It refers to the presence of multiple small cysts in the ovaries, and clinical diagnosis often involves the separation of menopausal and other endocrine disorders. The clinical diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome is extremely complex. In addition to bilateral ovarian polycystic reduction presenting as polycystic changes, clinical diagnosis often accompanies phenomena such as menstrual disorders, infertility, hirsutism, and obesity. After bilateral wedge resection of the ovaries, menstruation and menopause can be completely restored, and early pregnancy can be achieved. This is known as polycystic ovary syndrome. Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense and can affect people of all ages, but are most common in the 20-50 age group.
