Patient's question:
I have a particularly itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How big does an ovarian cyst need to be to require treatment?Doctor's answer:
During the health check, an ovarian cyst was found with a diameter less than 5 centimeters and clear boundaries. The cyst fluid is liquid. No special treatment is needed. Regular follow-up reviews are sufficient. Your ovarian cyst has a diameter of 4 millimeters, which is very small. It is generally considered to be an ovarian corpus luteum cyst. It is recommended to have a follow-up check-up after three months to closely monitor how the cyst grows rapidly. If the cyst grows too quickly, has unclear boundaries, and is of mixed nature, then surgical treatment is necessary.
