Why do you get ovarian cysts?

There are many causes of ovarian cysts, such as genetic factors and family factors. Other causes, including endocrine disorders, can also induce ovarian cysts. And some external environmental factors can also induce the occurrence of ovarian cysts.

1. Genetic and family factors

Generally speaking, according to statistics, about 20% to 25% of patients with ovarian cysts in my country have direct relatives who have suffered from ovarian cysts. From these data, we can explain to a certain extent the fact that the occurrence of ovarian cysts may be closely related to genetic factors and family factors.

2. Endocrine factors

The ovary is a reproductive organ that can produce eggs, ovulate, and secrete hormones. Relatively speaking, female patients of childbearing age with vigorous endocrine function are more likely to have adverse symptoms such as ovarian cysts. According to relevant research, pregnancy may be an ovarian cyst; common cancers, such as breast cancer and endometrial cancer, are usually complicated by ovarian cysts, which is enough to show that endocrine factors may be one of the main causes of ovarian cysts.

3. Environmental factors

In industrialized countries, the incidence of ovarian cysts in women is higher, which may be related to high cholesterol in the diet. Ionizing radiation, asbestos and talcum powder can also affect oocytes, thereby inducing ovarian cysts.

In addition to the above situations, the occurrence of ovarian cysts may also be related to mental stress, bad living habits, diet and other factors. Unreasonable diet structure, mental stress, staying up late, smoking, drinking and other bad living habits will lead to a decline in women's physical functions, and then a decline in immune function and endocrine disorders, which will eventually lead to ovarian cysts.
