What are the early symptoms of ovarian cysts?

The early symptoms of ovarian cysts generally include lower abdominal discomfort, lower abdominal swelling, lumbar pain, pain during sexual intercourse, etc. When physical discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time.

Ovarian cysts are cystic structures formed in or on the surface of the ovaries. The causes are mainly related to abnormal hormone levels, infection and other factors. People who take ovulation-inducing drugs for a long time, have a family history of genetic diseases, and have endometriosis are more likely to increase the risk of the disease. Most patients with ovarian cysts usually do not have obvious clinical symptoms in the early stages of the disease. Some patients will experience symptoms such as lower abdominal discomfort, lower abdominal swelling, lumbar pain, and pain during sexual intercourse. As the size of the ovarian cyst increases, the patient will also have a feeling of pressure in the lower abdomen. If the ovarian cyst ruptures or twists, the patient will experience severe abdominal pain, nausea, fever, shock and other serious symptoms.

When a patient discovers an ovarian cyst, if the ovarian cyst is small and there are no obvious clinical symptoms, it is generally not necessary to treat it temporarily, and go to the hospital for regular checkups as recommended by the doctor. If the patient's ovarian cyst is large and accompanied by clinical symptoms such as lower abdominal compression, lower abdominal swelling, and lumbar pain, surgical treatment should be considered in a timely manner under the guidance of a doctor. Common surgical methods mainly include ovarian cyst removal, affected side oophorectomy, etc.
