Patient's question:
Every time I have my period, the amount of blood flow is particularly heavy, and recently I've noticed that I've also experienced a recurrence of physical obesity. Later, after undergoing a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor told me that I have an ovarian cyst. Can an ovarian cyst transform into cancer?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are a common disease in women, and this condition can interfere with women's physical health. Ovarian cysts are generally never likely to develop into cancer. If an ovarian cyst rapidly decreases in size, it may compress the bladder or intestines, leading to symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, and constipation. If such symptoms occur, it is important to seek a diagnosis as soon as possible, and in some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary for treatment.
