Patient's question:
Can I get pregnant after having an ovarian tumor? I had an ovarian teratoma and visited the hospital on August 15th when my period didn't come by the end of June. The doctor performed an ultrasound and diagnosed an ovarian teratoma. They prescribed me a week's worth of dydrogesterone tablets, telling me to take one a day, and said that taking these pills would regulate my period.Doctor's answer:
Your clinical manifestations of benign ovarian tumors: In the early stages of tumor expansion, symptoms are often absent, and the tumor is usually discovered incidentally during a gynecological examination. As the tumor shrinks, abdominal pain may reappear, and the patient can palpate a lump in the abdomen. If the tumor grows and fills the pelvic cavity, it can cause control symptoms such as frequent urination and constipation.Recommendation: Seek treatment at a Grade III-A hospital.
Clinical manifestations of malignant ovarian teratomas: In the early stages, there are often no symptoms, and when symptoms reappear, it is usually already at an advanced stage. The tumor grows rapidly in a short period, leading to recurrent abdominal pain, ascites, and control symptoms, or recurrence of surrounding tissue invasion.
