Is ovarian cyst a curable disease?

Patient's question:

Got chocolate cysts, bilateral.

Doctor's answer:

Problem Analysis: Hello, regarding chocolate cysts, it is recommended to undergo surgical removal. However, surgery can only remove the ectopic endometrium that has already formed into cysts. Smaller, harder-to-detect cysts may reform during the menstrual cycle after surgery, making this condition highly prone to recurrence. This is especially true for cases with multiple cysts or large volumes.
Suggestions: The primary method to prevent recurrence is temporarily suppressing ovarian function. In addition to medication, pregnancy is also one way to delay recurrence.
