Patient's question:
Hello, I've felt abnormal white discharge for a year, it's yellow, and I often have lower left abdominal pain. The doctor said I have an ovarian cyst.Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovarian cysts can be classified as physiological or pathological. During ovulation, the ovary may appear slightly larger due to the growth of the follicle, which can easily lead to false positives in 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.
