Patient's question:
Divorced for two years without pregnancy, I've been experiencing abdominal pain, irregular menstruation, excessive yellow discharge with a bad odor. Last year at the end of the year, I had a thorough examination at the city hospital, and the results showed an ovarian cyst. What should I do now? I haven't been able to get pregnant, and now I've found out this result. Can I get pregnant with an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Surgical Treatment Methods for Ovarian Cysts1. Surgical Treatment for Benign Ovarian Cysts:
① Ovarian Cystectomy: This type of patient often has no menstrual disorders, and some may even have split early pregnancy. If one side of the tumor is more significant, the affected-side tubo-ovarian excision can be performed.
② Tubo-ovarian Excision: Recurrent unilateral ovarian cysts in patients over the age of 45 often undergo unilateral or bilateral tubo-ovarian excision. If the patient's overall condition cannot tolerate the surgery or if the inflammation is severe, a total hysterectomy is usually performed. It is noteworthy that when dealing with larger ovarian cysts, the surgery should prioritize complete removal regardless of the incision size to prevent the cyst's contents from leaking into the abdominal cavity or the incision. During the procedure, attention should be paid to the patient's pulse and respiration.
