Can you get pregnant with ovarian cysts? What are the specific symptoms?

Ovarian cysts are functional ovarian cysts, which are caused by excessive physiological reactions caused by the ovary itself or drug stimulation. Patients generally do not feel any discomfort, and a few may have menstrual disorders, which are mainly discovered accidentally during medical examinations for other reasons. Most functional ovarian cysts are less than 5 cm in diameter and can disappear naturally, and generally do not require treatment.

The clinical symptoms of ovarian cysts are as follows:

1. Increased abdominal circumference and abdominal mass. This is also the most common clinical phenomenon. The patient feels that the clothes or belt are very tight, and finds that the abdomen is enlarged, or when pressing the abdomen, there is a mass and abdominal distension.

2. Compression symptoms. Huge ovarian cysts can cause dyspnea and palpitations due to compression of the diaphragm. Ovarian cysts with large amounts of ascites can also cause this symptom. However, the dyspnea of ​​some patients with ovarian cysts is caused by pleural effusion on one or both sides, which is usually combined with ascites to form Meigs syndrome.

3. Abdominal pain. If the cyst has no complications, lower abdominal pain is rare. Patients with ovarian cysts who feel abdominal pain, especially sudden abdominal pain, are mostly due to cyst pedicle torsion, and some are due to cyst rupture, bleeding or infection. Malignant cysts can also cause abdominal pain and leg pain, so patients with lower abdominal pain should go to the hospital emergency department immediately.

4. Menstrual disorders. Generally, ovarian cysts, even bilateral ovarian cysts, rarely cause menstrual disorders because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine, or it may be due to ovarian cysts changing the pelvic vascular distribution, causing endometrial congestion; or it may be due to malignant ovarian tumors directly metastasizing to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders caused by endocrine tumors are often affected by other endocrines.
