Patient's question:
My best friend found out she was pregnant a few weeks ago. Since both she and her boyfriend are still quite young, they decided to postpone it. I accompanied her to have an abortion surgery. After the surgery, it seems there might be some issues. What could be the cause of an adnexal cyst after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
After an induced abortion, the recurrence of adnexal cysts may be due to bacterial infection during the miscarriage process. This can lead to adnexitis, which subsequently forms cysts. Under the guidance of a doctor, a variety of anti-inflammatory medications should be used for active treatment. After a period of treatment, it is necessary to visit the hospital for follow-up checks at irregular intervals to carefully monitor the condition of the cysts. If the cysts are small, there is no need to worry too much, as they will have no significant impact on your health.
