How is a 4 cm ovarian cyst treated?

Patient's question:

Age
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Hello, I am a 29-year-old woman with one son who is over four years old. After two ultrasound examinations by local doctors, I was told that I have an ovarian cyst. The first ultrasound was performed a week ago, and the cyst was about 4 centimeters in size. The doctor prescribed a seven-day course of anti-inflammatory medication. Today, another ultrasound examination was conducted, and the cyst is still present, with no change in size compared to seven days ago. (Additionally, I had a miscarriage last month on the 8th, during which there was intermittent spotting. On the 29th of last month, I experienced a period-like flow, which lasted for three days and then subsided.) There are no other discomforts in my body. Dear

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Could the ultrasound show that the miscarriage is completely clean? Based on your current bleeding, it is unlikely related to an ovarian cyst. The only treatment for benign ovarian tumors is surgical removal. For cysts with a diameter of less than 5 to 6 cm, observation for 3 to 6 months is recommended. If the cyst continues to grow, or if the tumor diameter is less than 5 cm but is a solid tumor, surgical removal should be performed. For children and young, childless patients, the affected ovary or adnexa is often removed. If both ovaries have benign tumors, the doctor may consider ovarian tumor enucleation to preserve as much ovarian tissue as possible, maintaining menstrual and fertility functions. Laparoscopic surgery has smaller abdominal incisions and a faster recovery.
