Can I still get pregnant if I have an ovarian cyst?

Patient's question:

I have been feeling unwell and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The ultrasound results showed a 6341mm round silent area on the right side, with clear boundaries, thin and smooth walls. I don't know how serious this condition is, and now I really want to have a child, worrying it might be affected.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the ovarian cyst is now about six centimeters. For such a large cyst, it is generally recommended to treat it before getting pregnant. Ovarian cysts can lead to various conditions such as infertility, anovulation, immature follicles, preterm birth, spontaneous abortion, and fetal malformations. If such a large cyst is accompanied by early pregnancy, it can affect the normal growth and development of the fetus. Since ovarian cysts are often caused by hormonal imbalances in the body, it is not advisable to self-medicate blindly. Medications contain certain hormones, and minimally invasive surgical treatment for ovarian cysts does not compress, does not require hospitalization, does not damage the ovaries, and most importantly, does not affect future normal conception. It is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not use medication blindly to avoid worsening the condition.
