Patient's question:
Friend has been married for 2 years without a baby and is very worried. She went to the hospital for a check-up and found out that she had an ovarian cyst. She is a bit anxious. These years without a child, she fears that this illness will make it even harder for her to get pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts can be classified as physiological or pathological. During ovulation, the ovary may appear slightly larger due to the growth of the follicle, which can easily lead to false positives on ultrasound results. To determine if 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 the cyst is malignant, its location, size, growth rate, whether fertility needs to be preserved, and the patient's personal preferences.
