Patient's question:
I am 28 years old. Careful examination revealed bilateral ovarian cysts. The right cyst measures 1.2x1.0 cm2, and the left cyst measures 1.3x1.5 cm2. Additionally, I have lower abdominal pain on the left side. How should the cysts be treated? Can I deliver a baby without treatment? Will it lead to infertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Ovarian cysts are often diagnosed clinically with symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, increased vaginal discharge, yellow vaginal discharge, vaginal odor, and menstrual irregularities. Additionally, there is usually a solid, painless mass in the lower abdomen, and sexual intercourse may cause recurring pain. When the cyst affects hormone supply, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or excessive hair growth may reappear. If the cyst ruptures, severe symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, abdominal distension, difficulty breathing, reduced appetite, nausea, and fever may occur. Larger cysts can press on nearby bladder tissue, leading to frequent urination and difficulty urinating.
