What is an ovarian cyst? Are the symptoms easy to detect?

1. Ovarian cysts have no obvious clinical manifestations in the early stage, and patients are often found only during gynecological examinations when they seek medical treatment for other diseases. Later, as the tumor grows, patients will feel it, and the symptoms and signs vary depending on the nature, size, development, and presence or absence of secondary degeneration or complications of the tumor.

2. Generally, ovarian, even bilateral ovarian cysts, do not cause menstrual disorders because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine, or it is caused by ovarian tumors that change the pelvic blood vessels, causing endometrial congestion; or it is caused by ovarian malignant tumors that directly metastasize to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders caused by endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory influences. The pain caused by ovarian cysts is sometimes continuous and sometimes dull. Malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain, leg pain, and pain, which often cause patients to seek emergency treatment.

3. Usually, huge ovarian tumors can cause dyspnea and palpitations due to compression of the diaphragm. Ovarian tumors combined with large amounts of ascites can also cause ovarian cysts to block the birth canal, causing such symptoms. However, some ovarian tumor patients' dyspnea is caused by unilateral or bilateral pleural effusion. If the tumor has no complications, there is little pain.

4. Patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially those that occur suddenly. This is usually caused by the twisting of the tumor pedicle, or occasionally by tumor rupture, bleeding or infection. Malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain, and the pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment.
