Patient's question:
What should I do if my wife has an ovarian cyst in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
In the early stages of pregnancy, if there is an ovarian cyst, the first thing to consider is the size of the cyst. If the cyst is no larger than 5 centimeters, intermittent follow-up examinations can be performed, with at least one abdominal ultrasound examination every month. If the cyst is larger than 5 centimeters, surgical treatment needs to be decided. During pregnancy, follow the doctor's advice for intermittent follow-up examinations, rest more, avoid overexertion and strenuous exercise, and do not consume medications, foods, or supplements containing estrogen.
