Patient's question:
I often experience lower abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, increased abdominal circumference, and menstrual disorders. There may also be abnormal vaginal discharge. Additionally, I feel a foreign body sensation in the pelvic area, so now I want to know if the foreign body sensation in the pelvic area and ear pain are symptoms of pelvic cancer?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally speaking, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence suggesting a tumor, it is often a functional cyst. It can be treated with Guizhi Fuling capsules, followed by close follow-up, meaning check-ups every 2-3 months. The follow-up interval can then be adjusted based on the situation. If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters, it is more likely an ovarian tumor and usually requires surgical treatment. If accompanied by progressively worsening dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia, as well as tender nodules in the pelvis, endometriosis cysts should be considered. Different treatments can be adopted based on specific circumstances. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
