Patient's question:
My friend went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found a left ovarian cyst. She is very worried. Will the left ovarian cyst disappear?Doctor's answer:
But ovarian cysts with a volume below five centimeters are physiological cysts, which are caused by hormonal metabolic changes stimulating the ovaries to undergo cystic changes again. They typically occur after delayed menstruation, or when contraceptive pills have been used previously, or after a miscarriage. Smaller cysts are self-limiting and do not require special treatment. If the cyst grows rapidly or has a volume greater than five centimeters, appropriate medication or surgical methods should be adopted based on the condition.
