Patient's question:
Ovarian cyst 6.5 cm, it's been three and a half years. It was always less than 5 cm before. I've been having some abdominal pain these days. The ultrasound shows it's 6.5 cm now. I don't know if I should have surgery.Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts are mostly caused by pelvic inflammation. Surgical treatment is recommended only if the ovarian cyst is larger than five centimeters on color Doppler ultrasound. Small cysts are advised to be treated with oral medication. A course of treatment is generally three months long. It is recommended to follow up regularly, usually with a color Doppler ultrasound every three to six months. It is possible to develop cysts on the ovaries. It cannot be completely cured. Do not overworry. Irregular menstruation can be treated with menstrual regulation therapy.
