Doctor's answer:

Hello, let me briefly introduce ovarian cysts. In the early stages, ovarian cysts show no obvious clinical manifestations. Patients are often discovered to have them during a gynecological examination when seeking medical treatment for other conditions. As the tumor grows, patients may begin to feel symptoms, which vary depending on the nature, size, development, presence of secondary degeneration, or complications of the tumor.
1. Enlarged waist circumference and abdominal mass are the most common symptoms. Patients may notice their clothes or belts feel tight, prompting them to realize their abdomen has grown. Alternatively, they might accidentally feel an abdominal mass in the morning while pressing their abdomen, accompanied by abdominal distension and discomfort.
2. Abdominal pain is rare if the tumor has no complications. Therefore, if an ovarian tumor patient experiences abdominal pain, especially sudden pain, it is often due to torsion of the tumor stalk. It may occasionally be caused by tumor rupture, bleeding, or infection.
