Patient's question:
I never had a normal menstrual cycle before. Later, after taking medication to regulate my period, I gave birth to a son. It has been almost three years since then, and I haven’t had a menstrual period. I went to the hospital and was told that I might have ovarian cyst syndrome. Here is the ultrasound report: the uterus is of normal size, shape, and clear outline, with uniform. The endometrial line is clear, with the left side measuring 5mm. The left ovary is 53x31mm in size, while the right ovary is unclear, showing multiple follicles in a honeycomb-like pattern, with the largest being about 6x5mm. No obvious mass echoes were found in the bilateral adnexal regions.What kind of help do you need: Hello, is this ovarian cyst syndrome? Should I have surgery? Can it be treated? Is it serious?
Doctor's answer:
With a history of menstrual irregularities, I have one child, and I haven't had a period for three years. Based on your ultrasound results, it can be seen that there is some reason to suspect you may have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). First, there is a history of amenorrhea, and the ultrasound shows multiple follicles in the ovaries, appearing honeycomb-like. Are you experiencing weight gain? Do you have excessive body hair? Are you experiencing acne? These could all be signs of PCOS.For patients with ovarian cysts, in addition to oral medication, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, maintain cleanliness, avoid sexual intercourse, and reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Lastly, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations.
