Patient's question:
Hello, I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine for ovarian cysts for two months, and the cyst has now shrunk. I plan to get pregnant in March. How long should I stop taking the medication in advance for the best results?Follow-up question: Thank you! Will the cyst grow again during the medication withdrawal period? I heard that after pregnancy, the cyst no longer grows. Is that true?
Doctor's answer:
If you become pregnant while taking the medication, it is important to consider this seriously. It is recommended that you visit a gynecologist and clearly explain to the doctor the specific Chinese and Western medicines you have been taking. Listen to the doctor's advice. The occurrence of ovarian cysts not only affects the patient's body but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
