Do uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts have the same symptoms?

Do not stimulate or extract ovarian cysts. Many patients report that the more they extract, the faster the cyst grows. The scientific approach should be to choose the right medicine for active treatment and combine it with close follow-up and reexamination, pay attention to the changes in the nature of ovarian cysts, and then take corresponding countermeasures. So, what are the symptoms of uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts? Are they the same?

Most patients with uterine fibroids have no obvious symptoms and are only occasionally discovered during pelvic examinations. If symptoms occur, they are closely related to the location of the fibroid, its growth rate, and whether the fibroid has degenerated.

1. Menstrual changes: The most common symptom is shortened menstrual cycle, increased menstrual flow, prolonged menstrual period, irregular vaginal bleeding, etc.

2. Abdominal mass: The abdomen is swollen, and a mass can be felt in the lower abdomen, accompanied by a feeling of falling.

3. Increased leucorrhea: Increased leucorrhea, sometimes with a large amount of purulent and bloody discharge and necrotic tissue discharge with a foul odor.

4. Pain: Generally, patients have no abdominal pain, but often have lower abdominal distension, back pain, etc., and uterine fibroids.

The main symptoms of ovarian cysts are:

1. Discomfort in the lower abdomen is the initial symptom before the patient feels the lower abdominal mass. Due to the weight of the tumor itself and the influence of intestinal peristalsis and body position changes, the tumor moves in the pelvic cavity, pulling on its pedicle and pelvic funnel ligament, causing the patient to feel fullness and falling in the lower abdomen or iliac fossa.

2. Increased abdominal circumference and abdominal swelling. Patients find that their clothes or belts seem tight and small, and they just notice the enlargement of their abdomen, or they feel it occasionally in the morning, so they press their abdomen and find a swelling in the abdomen, coupled with abdominal distension and discomfort.

3. Abdominal pain: If the tumor has no complications, there is little pain. Patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially when it occurs suddenly, which is mostly caused by tumor pedicle twisting, or occasionally by tumor rupture, bleeding or infection.
