Patient's question:
My beloved only has one ovary left, and it's still inflamed and has been operated on. Will it affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
An ovarian cyst is a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense, and it can affect people of all ages, but it is most common in women aged 20-50. Ovarian malignant tumors are rarely diagnosed in the early stages due to the short duration of illness, so by the time patients seek medical attention, 70% are already in the late stage, making early treatment rare. The five-year survival rate has always hovered between 20-30%, making it one of the most serious malignant tumors threatening women's lives. The ovary is one of the smaller organs in the human body but is a common site for various types of tumors. Ovarian tumors can have different natures and forms—single or mixed, unilateral or bilateral, cystic or solid, benign or malignant—and many ovarian tumors can produce female or male sex hormones.
