Does the mass shrink after ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

After more than twenty days of ectopic pregnancy, a follow-up ultrasound showed that the tubal mass had decreased in size, but I noticed that cysts had grown on both ovaries during the time. Before treatment, when I had an ultrasound before discharge, the doctor didn't mention any cysts on the ovaries, right? How can ovarian cysts be caused by incomplete absorption of the ectopic pregnancy mass, or are they tumors? Can they naturally disappear? Besides what other medication can best treat this tumor? What kind of help I need: Is my condition an ovarian tumor or just a regular cyst? What medication can make the cyst disappear?

Doctor's answer:

If it's an ovarian cyst, it's mainly caused by the endometrium shedding into the ovary. This is benign, so you don't need to worry. I suggest you try Chinese medicine treatment. The effect of Chinese medicine treatment for ovarian cysts is quite good. Besides, it's best to have regular ovarian ultrasound follow-ups at the hospital. For ectopic pregnancy patients, while understanding the importance of proper treatment, they can also use dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment in daily life. It's crucial to avoid being overly hungry or full in daily eating habits and never overeat or binge on food.
