Patient's question:
I had an ultrasound on December 15th. The doctor's report stated (I don't remember the specific values like chest diameter) only that "1. The fetus is viable 2. A liquid mass is visible in the left ovary."I am currently 15 weeks pregnant, and the ultrasound was done at 13 weeks and 6 days. Could you please explain how the ovarian liquid mass is formed and whether it affects the baby inside?
Additionally, yesterday when I went to get my maternity health record (), I received a blood test report with slightly elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT). The doctor prescribed Ganoderma lucidum extract tablets and vitamin E/C. How is the elevated ALT caused, and will it develop into hepatitis B?
Doctor's answer:
On the right side of the adnexal area, a liquid mass should first be considered as an ovarian cyst. If the diameter is less than 5 cm, it should be considered physiological, such as a corpus luteum cyst or a follicular cyst. Regular observation can be performed, and it will often naturally disappear after a menstrual period. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 cm, it is more likely to be an ovarian tumor, and surgical treatment is generally required. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a routine check-up in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
