Can ovarian cysts be treated conservatively?

Patient's question:

Previously, my menstrual cycle was always very regular, with periods occurring consistently and rarely experiencing severe menstrual cramps. However, since last year, I’ve been unsure what’s going on—some kind of endocrine disorder has developed. When it comes on, the pain is extremely intense, and recently I’ve also felt a heavy ache in my lower abdomen. After a check-up, the result revealed an ovarian cyst. Can ovarian cysts be treated conservatively?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment method for ovarian cysts depends on factors such as the patient's age, the potential for malignant transformation of symptoms, the location of the cyst, its size, volume, growth rate, the deformation of the uterine appendages it causes, how to preserve fertility, and the patient's personal wishes. In addition, during the treatment of ovarian cysts, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of the ovarian cyst.
