Patient's question:
I've been married for over a year, and we haven't had any children. Later, I went to the city hospital and was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome.Doctor's answer:
Hello, an ovarian cyst refers to a benign tumor of the ovary and is the most common gynecological disease. It can occur at any age in women, with a higher incidence during the reproductive period. Patients usually have no obvious symptoms and are often discovered incidentally during a physical examination. Clinically, the condition progresses slowly, and as the cyst gradually enlarges, symptoms such as menstrual disorders, abdominal distension, and pain may occur. When these symptoms are more severe, the likelihood of a woman having an ovarian cyst is higher, and the risk and harm of developing ovarian cancer from malignant transformation also increase.Guidelines:
If the mass is smaller than 125px, it is suspected to be a non-neoplastic ovarian cyst, which may be a ovarian tumor-like lesion. Short-term observation, or oral contraceptive drugs, or traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be considered. Your mass has already exceeded 125px. Once diagnosed as a benign ovarian tumor, surgical treatment should be performed. One purpose of surgical treatment for an ovarian cyst is to rule out malignant tendencies. The surgery can be performed laparoscopically or through an open procedure. Compared to open surgery, laparoscopic surgery can reduce hospital stay, decrease pain, and lead to faster postoperative recovery. However, before undergoing laparoscopic surgery, it is important to be prepared for an open procedure.
