Patient's question:
Because of getting older, there are intermittent skin breakdowns, which cause pain during intercourse and a feeling of lower abdominal heaviness and distension. A thorough examination revealed an ovarian cyst.Doctor's answer:
An ovarian cyst is a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense. Ovarian cysts include two major modules: left adnexal cyst and right adnexal cyst. People of all ages can be affected, but it is most common in women aged 20-50. In clinical diagnosis, ovarian cysts often manifest as lower abdominal pain, lower abdominal discomfort, increased vaginal discharge, yellow vaginal discharge, vaginal odor, and menstrual irregularities. Additionally, there is usually a solid, painless mass in the lower abdomen, and pain may recur during sexual intercourse. When the cyst affects hormone secretion, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or excessive body hair growth may occur.
