Patient's question:
Sister-in-law has been feeling unwell recently and often experiences dizziness, a heavy and bloated abdomen, and sometimes bleeding from the vagina. She went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with an ovarian cyst.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 results in ultrasound. To determine whether an ovarian cyst exists, it is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound examination at the hospital after menstruation to accurately assess the true size of the ovary. The treatment method 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.
