Patient's question:
Two years ago, during a health check-up, I discovered the issue of ovarian cysts. Since there were no symptoms, I didn't take any treatment measures. However, later, due to cervical cancer, I had to have my uterus removed. Now, I want to understand if the ovarian cysts disappear after the uterus is removed?Doctor's answer:
Cervical cancer and uterine removal are two different diseases. Uterine removal and liver cysts have no direct relationship regarding recovery. The most common cause of ovarian cysts is physiological cysts, in which case they can recover on their own without treatment. Cysts caused by gynecological inflammation, ovarian tumors, or endometriosis. Different cysts require different treatments. By carefully observing the changes of the cyst through ultrasound, if the cyst is larger than 5 centimeters and accompanied by abdominal pain, or if the ultrasound results are not ideal, laparoscopic cyst removal can be considered.
