Patient's question:
Medical History:Menstruation was particularly painful in June. After the period ended, a July examination revealed a 2722mm fluid-filled cyst. After taking Danbie capsules, an August examination showed that the cyst not only did not shrink but also increased by half to 6235mm. Tumor markers were normal, indicating it was benign, but the cause was unknown. I am unmarried and do not want surgery. Currently, I am still taking medication and have switched to Jin Gang Teng capsules.
How can I determine the cause of this cyst, and what tests should I undergo? If using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, which hospital would be the best, and how should I take the medication? Thank you, kind doctors. I am very worried!!

Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the symptoms of a cyst in the left adnexa of the uterus should be considered as caused by common benign tumors in gynecology. Generally, they should not cause infertility or sterility, so there is no need to worry. You should pay attention to observation. If the cyst is small, there is no need to worry, and treatment can be temporarily avoided. If the cyst is larger, exceeding 5 cm, surgical treatment should be considered. It is recommended that you cooperate with your doctor for conservative Chinese medicine treatment, or you can undergo ultrasound therapy. Ultrasound-guided interventional therapy involves directly puncturing the abnormal tissue under ultrasound guidance and injecting medication to cause rapid dehydration, degeneration, necrosis, and fibrosis of the abnormal tissue.
