Patient's question:
Which method is best for treating ovarian cysts? Surgery or harsh treatment? My cyst is about 4CM in size.Doctor's answer:
The conditions of having ovarian cysts are varied, and ovarian cysts are classified as benign or malignant, as well as by size. If it is a benign tumor, it is further divided into two types: neoplastic and non-neoplastic. They can spontaneously rupture and may also cause recurrent acute abdominal pain. Therefore, it is important to have a pelvic examination before attempting to conceive. If the cyst is larger than 5 centimeters, surgery should be performed before conception. If an ovarian cyst is discovered after conception, regular hospital check-ups should be conducted. If the cyst grows gradually during pregnancy, it is best to have surgery to remove it before the 18th to 20th week of gestation.
