What are the classifications of ovarian cysts? What are the traditional treatments?

Ovarian tumors are common tumors of the female reproductive system, with different properties and morphologies. The types of ovarian cysts can be roughly divided into the following categories:

1. Functional cyst: This is the most common cyst. It occurs in women of childbearing age during the ovulation cycle, and abnormal fluid accumulates in the follicle or corpus luteum, forming a follicular cyst or corpus luteum cyst. This functional cyst is sometimes large, but usually disappears within three months, regardless of whether it is used or not.

2. Hemorrhagic cysts: Sometimes follicular cysts and corpus luteum cysts grow too fast, causing the ovarian tissue to tear and bleed. The blood accumulates in the ovaries, and because they have no outlet, they are called hemorrhagic cysts. This type of cyst usually disappears on its own, but it takes a long time. If the physical discomfort is obvious, you can take medicine to relieve the symptoms. Only in a few cases, when the patient has severe symptoms, surgical removal is required.

3. Chocolate cyst endometriosis: refers to endometriosis growing in the ovaries, forming a large amount of coffee-colored, viscous, chocolate-like liquid in the ovaries. Because endometriosis will grow larger over time, gradually eroding normal tissue and causing irreversible damage to ovarian tissue. After evaluating its severity, surgery may be required.
