Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing discomfort in my lower abdomen again, and my menstrual cycle hasn't been good either—it's often delayed or early. After visiting the gynecology department at the hospital, the ultrasound showed "fibrillar echoes" inside the ovarian cyst. I want to know what this means?Doctor's answer:
If a careful ultrasound examination reveals cysts in the ovaries with a flocculent echo during the period, then this cyst may be a chocolate cyst, which is one type of endometriosis. Endometriosis can also be located in the uterine muscle layer or move to the ovaries. In addition, if it is located in the fallopian tubes or pelvic endometriosis, it can significantly affect pregnancy. Finally, during treatment, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, and actively participate in physical exercise.
