Patient's question:
Last pregnancy was less than three months, vaginal bleeding, went for a gynecological examination and found a 3.9 cyst on the left ovary. Usually had excessive white discharge and lower back pain. Later after miscarriage, drank two boxes of Shen Hou 25 Herbs Guizhi Pill.Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense, and they can occur at any age, but are most common in women aged 20-50. Ovarian malignant tumors are rarely diagnosed in the early stages due to the short duration of illness, and by the time patients seek medical attention, 70% are already in the late stage, making early treatment rare. The five-year survival rate has consistently hovered between 20-30%, making it one of the most severe malignant tumors threatening women's lives. The ovary is one of the smaller organs in the human body but is a common site for various types of tumors. Ovarian tumors can have different natures and forms—single or mixed, unilateral or bilateral, cystic or solid, benign or malignant—and many ovarian tumors can produce female or male sex hormones. Small ovarian cysts can be treated with medication, but larger cysts require surgical treatment.
