Patient's question:
What is an ovarian cyst? I want to consult about the reasons why women get ovarian cysts, but I don't know what's going on. I want to get pregnant, but I never can. Then I had a thorough check-up and was told I have an ovarian cyst. What should I do? Can it be cured? Can I still get pregnant? What kind of help do I need: What is an ovarian cyst?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are caused by changes in the normal function of the ovaries, primarily related to endocrine dysfunction. They are the result of excessive physiological responses triggered by endocrine imbalance. Generally, cysts have a diameter of less than 5 centimeters, are mostly functional cysts, and will naturally grow or disappear after menstruation. Regular follow-up ultrasound examinations may be sufficient. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters and grows rapidly, surgical treatment is usually required.
