Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing abdominal pain, and sometimes it hurts when I urinate. I often feel the need to urinate frequently and urgently, and my waist circumference has noticeably increased compared to before. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they found a lump but couldn't diagnose it as an ovarian cyst, stating that further tests are needed.How can an ovarian cyst be detected? Is there a high chance of pregnancy if one ovary has a cyst?
Doctor's answer:
1. Ovarian cysts contain a tumor, and the acidic environment within the ovaries helps the tumor grow. Therefore, it is recommended to consume more alkaline foods in daily life to neutralize this acidic environment, which can effectively reduce the rate of fibrosis in the cyst.2. Ovarian cysts can be classified as solitary or mixed, unilateral or bilateral, cystic or solid, benign or malignant. Among these, cystic types are most common, and the risk of malignancy is high. It is advised to identify the cause early and seek follow-up treatment. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital for thorough examination and follow-up.
