Patient's question:
I have had an IUD implantation in the past, but the ring has been removed for some time now. During a health check-up, an ultrasound examination revealed cysts, and the doctor said they were physiological cysts, which are normal and do not require treatment. However, I have noticed that my menstrual flow is very light and I often feel weak all over. What kind of help do I need: What are physiological corpus luteum cysts?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts can be physiological (meaning they are normal fluctuations in the menstrual cycle that can naturally disappear) or pathological (formed due to disease). Physiological cysts do not require surgery, while pathological cysts often need surgery for definitive diagnosis and additional treatment. For women of reproductive age, after discovering an ovarian cyst, the next course of action depends on the nature of the cyst. Ultrasound results are very helpful for diagnosis. If MRI suggests the cyst is anechoic (without echoes) and non-segmented, it is advisable to wait and see for 3 months. After 3 months, a repeat MRI should be performed. If the cyst still exists, surgery should be considered for resolution.
