Can ovarian cysts delay menstruation?

Ovarian cysts are a common gynecological disease that can seriously affect women's health, especially their fertility. So, can ovarian cysts delay menstruation?

Ovarian cysts often present with abdominal pain, abdominal discomfort, increased vaginal discharge, yellow vaginal discharge, vaginal discharge odor, abnormal menstruation, usually a firm painless mass in the abdomen, and sometimes pain during sexual intercourse. When the cyst affects hormone production, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or increased hair growth may occur. When the cyst torses, abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, loss of appetite, nausea, and fever are severe. Large cysts can compress the area near the bladder, causing frequent urination and difficulty urinating. Especially when these symptoms are severe, bleeding is frequent, and ovarian cysts occur at the same time, women are more likely to suffer from ovarian cysts, and the harm of malignant ovarian cancer is even greater.

Ovarian cysts can affect menstruation and therefore may cause delayed menstruation. However, patients with abnormal emotions, long-term mental depression, depression, or major mental stimulation and psychological trauma can lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea and amenorrhea. It is not entirely correct to say that ovarian cysts affect menstruation, because abnormal menstruation is related to various reasons. Therefore, if a patient has abnormal menstruation, it is best to seek medical attention in time and receive treatment after diagnosis.

Ovarian cysts can not only cause menstrual disorders, but also infertility. Once ovarian cysts become larger or degenerate, sperm, eggs or fertilized eggs may not work properly, thus affecting fertility.

Once a woman discovers an ovarian cyst, she should actively cooperate with treatment to avoid causing greater harm and damage to the body.
