Patient's question:
Hello, I am 42 years old this year. When I had a physical examination in the hospital, I found out that she had an ovarian cyst. She is very anxious now and has taken a lot of medicine, but the effect is not very obvious.Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts can be classified as physiological or pathological. During ovulation, the ovary may appear larger than usual due to the growth of the follicle, which can easily lead to false positives on ultrasound results. To determine whether an ovarian cyst is present, it is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound examination at the hospital after the menstrual period has ended to accurately assess the true size of the ovary. The treatment for ovarian cysts depends on various factors, including the patient's age, whether it is malignant, the location of the cyst, its volume, size, growth rate, whether fertility needs to be preserved, and the patient's personal preferences.
