Does an ovarian cyst cause abdominal pain?

Patient's question:

I have irregular periods and have developed an ovarian cyst. Recently, I've also been experiencing abdominal pain. Does the ovarian cyst cause abdominal pain?

Doctor's answer:

Ovarian cysts can cause abdominal pain. Your condition should be re-examined with a color ultrasound to understand the changes in the cyst. If the ovarian cyst is quite large and accompanied by long-term abdominal pain, surgical treatment is still a better option. The recovery after ovarian cyst surgery is usually quite good, so don't worry. After surgery, it's important to rest properly, avoid cold drafts, and not eat extremely cold or hard foods. Avoid catching a cold and maintain a healthy mind and body to keep your hygiene in check. This helps prevent bacterial infections due to weakened immunity.
