Patient's question:
When I was in high school, every time my period came, my stomach would hurt really badly. My sisters said it was nothing, that they experienced the same thing, and it would get better as I grew older. But now it hasn’t improved at all. Every time my period comes, my stomach hurts so much that I break into cold sweat and can’t do anything. The pain in my stomach is so unbearable, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and they said I have an ovarian cyst. How is an ovarian cyst treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence suggesting a tumor, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be used. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters, it is often an ovarian tumor and generally requires surgical treatment. It is recommended that you carefully check the size of the cyst and avoid treatment. In addition to timely treatment for ovarian cysts, patients should maintain a positive attitude towards the disease. Only in this way can they improve their immunity and the belief in fighting the disease. At the same time, they should pay more attention to dietary care, focusing on light food and avoiding irritating and cold food, believing that this will definitely drive away the ovarian cyst.
