Patient's question:
Today I went for a follow-up ultrasound and found a cyst on my left side. Is it urgent? Because it's been half a month since the D&C on the 20th and it hasn't cleared yet. I went to see the doctor, and they never mentioned a cyst before. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Based on your MRI findings, there is a small amount of intrauterine strong echoes, which are considered residual after medication abortion. There are cysts in the adnexal area, which may be physiological. This condition can be treated with anti-inflammatory, symptomatic, and uterine contraction medications to enhance the removal of intrauterine remnants. The cysts in the adnexal area can be periodically re-examined. If they persist or decrease, further examination and treatment should be considered. Ovarian cysts can also be periodically re-examined. If you are still not fully reassured, you can have a follow-up ultrasound after your next menstrual period. Pay attention to local hygiene and take precautions against colds in the waist and abdomen.
