Patient's question:
Recently I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. However, I would say my lifestyle habits are quite good, but I still got this disease.Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts can be classified as physiological or pathological. During ovulation, the ovary may appear larger than usual due to the growth of the follicle, which can easily lead to false positives on ultrasound results. To confirm whether an ovarian cyst is present, it is recommended to undergo a follow-up ultrasound examination after menstruation to determine the true size of the ovary. The treatment for ovarian cysts depends on various factors, including the patient's age, whether it is malignant, the location of the cyst, its volume, size, growth rate, the desire to preserve fertility, and the patient's personal preferences.
