Patient's question:
Hello, I had an ovarian cyst surgery a month ago. A few days ago, I went for a follow-up check-up and was told that my ovaries are normal, but the carbohydrate antigen is increasing. The doctor said I have endometriosis and prescribed me Marvelon birth control pills to take for three months. May I ask if I can take these pills and if they will affect future pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the uterus and ovaries are not the same organ. The ovaries have a relatively greater impact on reproduction. If the uterus is involved, consider laparoscopic treatment, which is generally not affected on pregnancy. However, for the ovaries, some attention needs to be paid.
