What does the encyclopedia say about ovarian cysts?

The encyclopedia says about ovarian cysts: It is a widespread ovarian tumor that can get sick at all ages, but it is most common in women aged 20-50. The clinical manifestations of ovarian cysts are abdominal pain, abdominal discomfort, increased leucorrhea, yellow leucorrhea, leucorrhea odor, abnormal menstruation, usually a solid 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 bodies may occur. Cyst torsion, 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.
