Patient's question:
Six months ago, I suddenly felt pain in my lower abdomen. A detailed ultrasound examination revealed a mass in the uterus, and each menstrual period lasted for half a month. The time from the start of one period to the start of the next was one month. I often felt tired, and during menstruation, I had white thick phlegm in my throat.Test results: The ultrasound showed cysts on both sides of the uterus and signs of inflammation.
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: I have had two surgeries, but the condition has recurred afterward.
What kind of help I need: I hope to get a clear answer and a cure.
Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts can lead to infertility in women of childbearing age, and the reasons are multifaceted. First, they can cause mechanical blockage of the fallopian tubes, affecting the menopausal function of the ovaries and the patient's nutrition. For example, bilateral ovarian cancer can destroy most of the ovarian tissue, resulting in a higher incidence of infertility. Additionally, surgical removal of the ovaries, either unilaterally or bilaterally, or surgical removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries in women near menopause or during menopause, can all lead to infertility in women of childbearing age. Initially, anti-inflammatory treatment is recommended, and careful observation of the cysts may show them shrinking. If they do not shrink, surgical treatment is required. For patients with ovarian cysts, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care and work.
