Patient's question:
During this year's breast screening, I also had a gynecological examination. The uterus and vagina were fine, but the ultrasound results showed that I have an ovarian cyst. My menstrual cycle is normal, and I don't have any symptoms. The doctor recommended that I have surgery. Is it necessary to have surgery for an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts do not necessarily require surgery. The indication for surgery on ovarian cysts depends on its size. If it is less than five centimeters, conservative therapy can be used, but it is necessary to go to the hospital for follow-up examinations regularly. If it is larger than five centimeters, surgery can be performed, such as laparoscopic surgery. During menstruation, pay attention to rest and strictly prohibit strenuous exercise. Always maintain a pleasant mood.
