Is ovarian cyst malignant? What disease is it?

Ovarian cysts have attracted the attention of many people because of their frequency and harmfulness. Early treatment can ensure health. However, since the early symptoms of ovarian cysts are not obvious, they are easily ignored by patients. Now it may be a malignant ovarian cyst. Female friends should treat the disease in time when they find it.

The main symptoms of ovarian cysts are:

1. Dysmenorrhea: Dysmenorrhea is characterized by secondary and progressive aggravation. The pain is mainly in the lower abdomen, lumbosacral region or back, and can also radiate to the vagina, perineum, anus and thighs. Patients may have no dysmenorrhea symptoms for a few years after menarche, and then begin to experience menstrual abdominal pain, which worsens year by year. It usually starts 1-2 days before menstruation and on the first day of menstruation. It is the most severe and unbearable, affecting daily life and work.

2. Infertility: Ovarian cyst is a type of ovarian tumor, and the mechanism of infertility is related to interference with ovulation. Some ovarian cysts with endocrine functions, such as ovarian thyroid tumors, ovarian granulosa-thecoma tumors, and testicular blastomas, will produce some corresponding hormones due to different tumor tissue components, interfering with the normal secretion of ovarian hormones and ovulation, resulting in amenorrhea, uterine bleeding, hirsutism, infertility and other symptoms.

3. Chocolate cyst: refers to endometriosis growing in the ovaries, forming a large amount of sticky coffee-colored liquid like chocolate in the ovaries. As endometriosis increases over time, it gradually erodes normal tissue and causes irreversible damage to ovarian tissue.
