Patient's question:
I had a cyst checked for 8 cm a few years ago and underwent minimally invasive surgery as recommended by the doctor. A year later, during a prenatal check-up, there was no recurrence. However, during another check-up, the ovarian cyst recurred, measuring about 5 cm. In 2016, after repeated and thorough examinations, it had grown to 9 cm. What should I do? How does it affect fertility? Where is the best place to treat ovarian cysts?Doctor's answer:
1, Ovarian cysts are the most common gynecological diseases. They can recur repeatedly at any age in women, with a higher incidence during the reproductive period. Patients usually have no obvious symptoms and are often discovered incidentally during physical examinations. Clinically, the condition progresses slowly, and as the cyst gradually shrinks, symptoms such as menstrual disorders and abdominal pain may occur.2, It is recommended to go to a professional and reputable hospital for examination and treatment. Avoid spicy foods such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw scallions, raw garlic, and baijiu (strong alcohol). Avoid foods with heating properties, blood-clotting effects, and hormonal components, such as longans, jujubes, eel glue, and royal jelly. Avoid "pathogenic" foods such as mutton, shrimp, crabs, eels, salted fish, and black fish.
