Is it easy to treat ovarian cysts?

Patient's question:

Five years ago, I had an oophorectomy. Recently, I've been sweating profusely every one or two hours, with no other symptoms. Could you please explain what might be causing this?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, if the cyst diameter is less than 5 centimeters and there is no evidence suggesting a tumor, it is often a functional cyst. Close follow-up is recommended, which means checking every 2-3 months, and then adjusting the follow-up interval based on the situation.
Guidelines:
If the cyst diameter is greater than 5 centimeters, it is often an ovarian tumor and generally requires surgical treatment.
