Patient's question:
What are the causes of follicular cysts?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a follicular cyst is caused by various conditions leading to ovarian congestion, such as chronic pelvic inflammation or ovarian prolapse, which results in impaired blood circulation to the ovaries. This thickens the capsule, preventing mature follicles from rupturing and releasing eggs, causing fluid retention within the follicle to form a cyst. The occurrence of follicular cysts not only affects the patient's health but also may lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo routine examinations in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
