Patient's question:
Ovarian cystDoctor's answer:
What you mentioned is likely a xanthelasma cyst. This condition is often related to physiological changes during pregnancy, and the cyst is generally not very large, usually disappearing on its own after the third month of pregnancy. In some cases, the cyst may be larger and rupture, causing intra-abdominal bleeding. Others may experience cyst pedicle torsion, both of which are accompanied by sudden severe abdominal pain, with severe cases potentially leading to shock symptoms. Therefore, you should pay attention to abdominal pain and seek medical attention promptly if you feel discomfort. If there is no discomfort, there is no need to worry about the cyst. At the same time, regular check-ups should be conducted to monitor changes in the size of the cyst. If the cyst persists and grows rapidly, surgery can be considered after the third month of pregnancy.
