Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation and cysts were diagnosed, and the doctor prescribed progesterone and Guizhi Fuling pills. Now that menstruation has arrived, the doctor mentioned that strict treatment with Guizhi Fuling pills might help reduce the cysts.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of ovarian cysts primarily depends on the size of the cyst. There are physiological and pathological types. If it is very small, the likelihood of it being physiological is high, and follow-up examinations every two to three months are sufficient. If the cyst is smaller than 5 centimeters, further detailed examinations can be conducted to confirm the diagnosis and develop a treatment plan based on the situation. Guizhi Fuling has the function of invigorating blood and resolving stasis, and it can be effective for ovarian cysts. However, as a traditional Chinese medicine, its effects are gradual, and it is recommended to take it for three months. Gynecological diseases are a type of gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently.
