Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me what uterine cysts are and if leaving them untreated will cause any problems?Doctor's answer:
Uterine cysts mostly refer to cervical cysts, which are a type of chronic cervicitis and a common gynecological disease. Women with cervical cysts may primarily experience increased vaginal discharge, which is mucopurulent in nature. The irritation from vaginal discharge can cause external genital itching and burning sensation. Symptoms such as intermenstrual bleeding and post-coital bleeding may also occur. The emergence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to further gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal discharge examination at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, dietary adjustments should be made, focusing on light and easily digestible foods, while avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
