Patient's question:
In the past two years, my menstrual cycle has been abnormal. Sometimes it takes more than forty days for me to have a period. The amount of menstrual flow is dark red, with blood clots, and it has a strong odor. My leukorrhea is also abnormal, with a light yellow color. I always have back pain. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up to see if it was an ovarian cyst. Is the right ovarian cyst serious?Doctor's answer:
Right ovarian cyst is a cyst of the right adnexa. Generally, ovarian cysts are usually benign and do not cause significant harm to the body. They can be classified into mucinous cystadenoma, serous cystadenoma, benign teratoma, fibroma, and Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor types, but there is a possibility of malignant transformation. This typically occurs in women aged 20-50. It is recommended that you seek medical attention at a regular infertility hospital as soon as possible to identify the cause, adopt appropriate treatment measures for symptoms, and avoid to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings. Pay attention to dietary adjustments and ensure adequate nutrient intake, consuming more foods rich in fats, proteins, vitamin B, folic acid, iron, calcium, and other nutrients. Maintain a diet based on lightness, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits.
