Patient's question:
I have had my period delayed for 7 days. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was found to have a 47mm ovarian cyst. My period still hasn't arrived, and I had sexual intercourse last month, but the condom broke. I got tested and found out I'm not pregnant. The doctor said the ovarian cyst is causing the delay in my period. What should I do about the ovarian cyst causing the delay in my period?Doctor's answer:
Currently, you can take Guizhi Fuling pills or progesterone capsules for treatment. The specific treatment plan depends on the condition. If the ovarian cyst is larger than 50 millimeters, surgery to remove it may be necessary. Otherwise, if the cyst becomes too large, it may compress the fallopian tubes, leading to infertility. Pay attention to eating more blood-activating and blood-stasis-resolving foods, such as brown sugar, red dates, black chicken, and eel glue. However, if you have an ovarian cyst, it is best not to consider pregnancy at this time. Additionally, during the treatment for ovarian cysts, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries. I hope the above information can help you. Thank you.
