Patient's question:
During the health check-up in March, I discovered a 6cm cyst. At that time, the doctor recommended surgical treatment, but I felt upset and didn't follow up. I'd like to ask if there are safer treatment methods that don't cause pressure?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts should be surgically treated as soon as they are diagnosed. If the size is less than 5 cm, surgery is necessary, otherwise, there is always a risk of recurrence, such as rupture or pedicle inversion, which could be life-threatening. Medication is ineffective. Laparoscopic cystectomy can be performed without laparotomy or ovary removal, maximizing the preservation of the patient's reproductive organs and fertility.In addition to treating ovarian cysts, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a positive mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
