Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can chocolate cysts be eliminated with medication?Doctor's answer:
Chocolate cysts can be treated with medication. For chocolate cysts smaller than 8 cm, medication can be used to shrink them until they completely disappear. For larger cysts, surgical treatment is preferred to prevent them from twisting or rupturing due to physical movement. Additionally, oral contraceptives can be effective in preventing the recurrence of chocolate cysts. Currently, the most advanced laparoscopic surgery can be used for treatment.
