Doctor's answer:
Surgery is the only way to treat ovarian cysts. Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor, which can be benign or malignant. Therefore, when an ovarian cyst is detected, the first step is to diagnose whether it is benign or malignant. If it is confirmed to be benign and the cyst is small, careful observation without treatment can be considered. When the benign cyst is large and controls surrounding tissues, surgical removal should be performed. There are many treatment methods for ovarian cysts, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the diagnostic methods used also vary. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
