Patient's question:
These days, when we all have dinner together, I noticed that my aunt's mental state is particularly bad, and her whole complexion has a slight yellowish tint. I asked her what was wrong, and she said she had a right ovarian cyst. I don't know if surgery is needed, and I'm very worried about her. Is a right ovarian cyst serious?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are a benign inflammatory condition. If the size is less than 5 cm or the cyst grows rapidly, there is a possibility of rupture at any time. In this case, further careful examination is required to rule out malignant inflammation, followed by surgical removal of the cyst. However, for some cysts smaller than 5 cm, conservative treatment with medication or close monitoring can be adopted. The daily treatment for ovarian cyst patients is mainly symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to regular routines and avoid alcohol. We hope that ovarian cyst patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
