Just found out I have an ovarian cyst while pregnant

Patient's question:

Just found out I had an ovarian abscess after getting pregnant. The doctor said there were two cysts inside. Due to various reasons, I had a miscarriage. Up to this day, I haven't had a thorough check-up except for the cysts. Two years ago, when I was newly pregnant, I was also found to have cysts. However, the doctor said if I didn't want the child, the cysts would naturally disappear without any major issues. But in these two years, my body hasn't shown any abnormalities. Why do the cysts reappear every time I get pregnant? How can I prevent this before getting pregnant? What kind of help do I need: Please explain clearly, thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Ovarian tumors generally occur in women aged 20-50, and are usually classified as benign or malignant. The degree of malignancy is relatively high, which can lead to conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome and chocolate cysts of the ovary. Therefore, active and coordinated treatment is necessary. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, abnormal vaginal discharge, and menstrual irregularities. Ultrasound and laparoscopic examinations can usually confirm the diagnosis. Surgical treatment is generally preferred, as the risk of malignancy is relatively high, and removal is often the best option. It is important to maintain a light diet and avoid spicy, irritating foods that can cause stomach upset. Adjusting one's mindset is also quite important.
