Patient's question:
I have a cyst on my left ovary, which measured 4.55.0 during the check-up. The doctor said that if it gets any bigger, I will need surgery, and then prescribed me some anti-inflammatory medication... Can I take this anti-inflammatory medication properly... What kind of help do I need: How is an ovarian cyst treated?Doctor's answer:
General treatment for ovarian cysts usually involves surgery, but very small cysts are never operated on by doctors. Surgery is only performed on cysts that are 6 cm or larger. Small cysts are generally treated with medication and require constant close monitoring. You don’t need to be too anxious—just follow the doctor’s instructions. It’s important to remember to visit the hospital for regular check-ups on schedule. If there is any suspicion, a biopsy can be performed to thoroughly check for any signs of malignancy.
